SUMMARY:* The Poetry of John Milton at Harvard Book Store\, Cambridge MA
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, July 6\, 2015 7:00 PM\n\n\n\nThe Poetry of John Milton\n\n\n\nHarvard Book Store and Mass Humanities welcome Professor of English at Harvard University GORDON TESKEY for a discussion of his book "The Poetry of John Milton." John Milton is regarded as the greatest English poet after Shakespeare. Yet for sublimity and philosophical grandeur\, Milton stands almost alone in world literature. His peers are Homer\, Virgil\, Dante\, Wordsworth\, and Goethe: poets who achieve a total ethical and spiritual vision of the world. In this panoramic interpretation\, the distinguished Milton scholar Gordon Teskey shows how the poet's changing commitments are subordinated to an aesthetic that joins beauty to truth and value to ethics. The art of poetry is rediscovered by Milton as a way of thinking in the world as it is\, and for the world as it can be.\n\n\n\nHarvard Book Store\, 1256 Massachusetts Ave.\n\nCambridge\, Middlesex County\, MA (Greater Boston)\n\nweb: www.harvard.com/event/gordon_teskey/\n\nemail: info@harvard.com\n\ncost: Free
