Paradise Lost - Satan is the Hero
The meaning of near(a) and evil - probably the close evaluative terms in human vocabulary- must be re-examined by every generation. though they function reasonably well up on a best-selling(predicate) level, these words are seldom precise enough or unambiguous enough for intelligent analysis in depth. Milton to a capitaler extent frequently follows the road of intellectualism of reason demonstration. His reasoning is often in support of a more than fluid, propellant, religious viewpoint.
