| Abstract
|
:
|
It is distinctly paradoxical that John Milton - who opposed infant baptism, supported regicide, defended divorce, and approved of polygamy - should be heard as a voice of orthodoxy. Yet modern scholarship has often understated or explained away his heretical opinions. This volume investigates aspects of Milton's works inconsistent with conventional beliefs, whether in terms of seventeenth-century theology or the common assumptions of Milton scholars. Contributors situate Milton and his writings within his specific historical circumstances, paying special attention to Milton's paradigmatic position within seventeenth-century religious controversy.
