Samson Agonistes | John Milton

1 post

Samson Agonistes, by John Milton, is a ''tragedy'' written in blank verse. It almost follows the theme of defection of a woman and humiliation suffered by the hero that was touched in Paradise Lost and Paradise Regained. With biblical over-tones, the tragedy follows the Greek traditions of Chorus and agony of the hero. An enchanting work that reflects author's own agony of descent into darkness.

Samson Agonistes | John Milton

‘A little onward lend thy guiding hand ....‘. I hadn‘t read this for nearly forty years, not since I studied it at school for English A Level ... towards the end of the last millennium (which makes it sound even longer ago!). I was pleasantly surprised by how well I remembered it, and how much I could actually quote unprompted. #johnmilton #samsonagonistes #schooldays #book #poetry #books #bookstagram #literature #currentlyreading #eyelessingaza
