Milton's Paradise with Reference to the Hexameral Background by Mary Irma Corcoran is a scholarly work that explores John Milton's epic poem Paradise Lost in relation to the hexameral literature of the Renaissance period. The hexameral literature was a genre that focused on the six days of creation as described in the Bible, and Corcoran argues that Milton drew heavily from this tradition in his depiction of the creation story in Paradise Lost. The book provides a detailed analysis of the poem, with particular emphasis on the themes of creation, fall, and redemption. Corcoran also examines the influence of other literary and philosophical traditions on Milton's work, including classical mythology and Christian theology. This book is an essential resource for scholars of Milton and Renaissance literature, as well as anyone interested in the intersection of literature and theology.This is a new release of the original 1945 edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
