English poet John Milton's 17th century epic poem, Paradise Lost, is the work for which he is best known and which would solidify his reputation as one of the greatest poets of all time.
A classic retelling of Biblical legend, the poem relates the stories of the war in heaven, the fall of man, and the temptation of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden.
First depicted in Revelation, Milton portrays the angel Lucifer's denial of God's authority over him and the failed rebellion that he leads as.
