Summary:

"Scholars discuss Milton's focus on prophecy and violence and how these themes--which function as a context in Milton's life and as a mode for an extended analysis of Restoration politics in Milton's poetry--add to an understanding of Milton as a visionary, extending the literary discussion of Milton's work into a larger geopolitical area"--Provided by publisher.
