Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book comprises two poetic dramas, 'Comus' and 'Arcades', written by the renowned English poet, John Milton, during his early career. Composed respectively in 1634 and 1633, these works showcase Milton's mastery of language, vivid imagery, and profound exploration of moral themes. 'Comus' is an enchanting tale of virtue triumphant over temptation, highlighting the struggle between good and evil through the captivating story of a young woman's encounter with the sorcerer Comus. 'Arcades' is a shorter, pastoral piece that celebrates the beauty of nature and the joys of a simple life. Together, these compositions offer a glimpse into Milton's early development as a poet and provide valuable insights into the cultural and literary landscape of 17th-century England.
