#ParadiseLost##Book1#
Milton's work, based on Genesis, Old Testament, was finished by dictation, which easily reminds me of the great blind poet Homer. Paradise Lost is a heroic epic, just like Virgil's Aeneid in the whole 12-book structure.
All of the devils were formerly angels who chose to follow Satan in his rebellion.Typically, the hero or protagonist of any narrative, epic poem or otherwise, is a person who struggles to accomplish something. In Book I, Milton presents Satan primarily as a military hero. In doing so, he makes Paradise Lost resonate with earlier epics, which all center around military heroes and their exploits. At the same time, Milton presents an implicit critique of a literary culture that glorifies war and warriors. Satan displays all of the virtues of a great warrior such as Achilles or Odysseus. He is courageous, undaunted, refusing to yield in the face of impossible odds, and able to stir his followers to follow him in brave and violent exploits. Milton is clearly aware of what he’s doing in making Satan somewhat appealing in the early chapters. By drawing us into sympathizing with and admiring Satan, Milton forces us to question why we admire martial prowess and pride in literary characters. Ultimately he attempts to show that the Christian virtues of obedience, humility, and forbearance are more important.

Human nature is not perfect! Even the most bright planets also have this kind of dark spots, and miss, Chad's eyes see only slight defects, but turn a blind eye to radiant light of the planet.
人的天性就是这样的不完美!即使是最明亮的行星也有这类黑斑,而斯卡查德小姐这样的眼睛只能看到细微的缺陷,却对星球的万丈光芒视而不见。
