On revolution, epic poetry, John Milton, and freedom.
George and contributing editor Alex Gourevitch talk to Orlando Reade, who teaches English at Northeastern University London. We discuss Orlando’s new book What In Me Is Dark: The Revolutionary Life of Paradise Lost and the history of readings of John Milton’s great epic poem.
Is Paradise Lost a poem about darkness?
What does a poem written in the seventeenth century have to tell us about the age of Trump and the contemporary Right?
What can we learn about freedom today from the rebellious Satan in the poem? Or the disobedient Eve?
What did Malcolm X get from the poem and why is Jordan Peterson so hot on epic poetry?
