Paradise Lost by John Milton is an epic poem that retells the biblical story of the Fall of Man. Written in blank verse, it explores themes of obedience, free will, pride, and redemption.
The poem begins with Satan and his rebel angels cast into Hell after their failed revolt against God. Determined to corrupt God's newest creation-humankind-Satan enters the Garden of Eden. Disguised as a serpent, he tempts Eve to eat the forbidden fruit, and she persuades Adam to do the same. Their disobedience brings sin and death into the world, and they are expelled from Paradise.
Despite this loss, the poem ends on a note of hope: Adam and Eve, though exiled, are promised eventual redemption through Christ. Milton presents a grand meditation on divine justice, human frailty, and the possibility of salvation.
