The War in Heaven: Milton’s Non-Pacifism and Purpose While John Milton’s Paradise Lost deals with many interesting theological concepts and issues‚ I find the War in Heaven to be one of the most controversial subjects of the epic poem.

Revard and Robert Thomas Fallon‚ take the opposite stance and vehemently claim that the war is far from a myth and

Satan is typically viewed as the evil fallen angel who is determined to undermine God. It is not often that someone would use the word “heroic” to describe him or feel any sympathy towards him. However‚ in John Milton’s “Paradise Lost”‚ it can be argued that Satan is the protagonist and epic hero of the work.

A Crime of Fate In Paradise Lost‚ Adam and Eve commit the first sin‚ and from this point on‚ all other sins are mere copies of this. Alexander Pope uses this to his benefit when he depicts the crime in The Rape of the Lock. By alluding to Milton’s work‚ Pope is able to comically refer to the cutting of a lock of hair as a tragic and epic event. In doing this‚ he paradoxically assumes that the crime is not one of personal fault‚ but one fated to happen by God‚ just as in Paradise Lost

abroad have argued about who the hero is of John Milton’s “Paradise Lost:” Satan‚ Adam or Christ‚ the Son? Since Milton’s overall theme stated in the opening lines of Book I is to relate ‘Man’s first disobedience’ and to ‘justify the ways of God to men’‚ Adam must be regarded as the main hero. John M.
