71 pages ; 20 cm. "Paradise Regained is the sequel to John Milton's epic poem Paradise Lost. Where Paradise Lost depicts Lucifer's fall from Heaven and Adam and Eve's expulsion from the Garden of Eden, Paradise Regained centres around the temptation of Christ, drawing on the Gospel of Luke for inspiration. Set in the aftermath of Satan's expulsion from heaven, the poem follows the earthly journey of Jesus Christ as he resists temptation and embarks on a spiritual quest to reclaim the paradise lost by humanity's fall. Through his rich prose and profound theological reflections, Milton delves into themes of redemption, free will, and the eternal struggle between good and evil. Paradise Regained stands as a testament to Milton's literary prowess and continues to captivate readers with its timeless exploration of the human condition and the enduring quest for spiritual salvation"-- Back cover.
