paradise lost
sooo on my final tomorrow we have to write an abstract short but good summary of paradise lost..which is RIDICULOUS!! because the epic is over 10,000 lines. and i did it! i did it ahead of time... cause i didnt think it could be done..but here it is! and UNDER 400 words!
Starts with Milton stating his purpose; to justify the ways of God to men, blames Satan for sin.
The epic “begins” with a technique called “in medias res”, Latin for “in the midst of things.” It tells us about the battle between Michael and Lucifer and the angels on either of their sides. Lucifer almost wins on 2nd day but Michael wins on 3rd day and Lucifer & followers fall to fiery river Styxx in Hell.
Lucifer lands in hell & speaks about the place he has been diminished to. His name is now Satan. Lucifer=see the light, Satan=enemy. Satan admits God is Sovran, but by no means better. He says it doesn’t matter where he is because its all in the mind, you can make a Hell of Heaven & Heaven of Hell. He loves it, loves evil, & loves that he is in power. “Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven.”
Then he meets Beelzebub, both love evil, BFF. & create Pandemonium. (Gold=material, bad.) For all the demons in hell.
Satan calls meeting in Pandemonium & they decide they want revenge, & that Satan should go to the new world called Earth and make “mankind” like them. Satan flies off & gets to gates guarded by Mermaid & Goblin. Unholy Trinity. (All that sin, must die.) Sin opens gate & he encounters 4 humours, cold, heat, moisture, dryness.
God watches as Satan approaches Earth who does something to Eve in the night & she wants to eat apple when she awakes. Adam tells her NO. Satan comes back in book 9, again during darkness, & enters the body of a serpent. Flattery, something hard to resist, “you deserve to know too!” She eats & Adam eats but Eve didn’t have to persuade.
Changes, 1) naked, figs 2)guilt trip, try to hide from God 3)argue 4)mistrust 5)see good & evil
Sin & death go to Earth to “infect” it as Satan happily returns to Pandemonium. Eve wants to commit suicide. (Guilty) God comes to her in dream & forgives her. Michael shows Adam a vision of salvation.
Epic closes as they leave Eden to start human race.
PHEW! jeez.
