　　Among English men of letters,there is none whose life and work stand in more intimeate relation with the history of his times than those of Milton.In the course of his forty-year career John Milton evolved from a prodigy to a blind prophet.from a philosophical aesthete to a Puritan rebel,and from a Latinist poet who proclaimed the triumph of reason to an epic poet obsessed with the intractability of sin.A master of almost every verse style,Milton left a body of work unrivaled in literary history.Miltons'works will convince readers that to this calss Milton could never have belonged,Milton was passionately devoted to beauty,Side by side with his love of liberty and his enthusiasm for moral purity qualities in which even then the Puritans had no monopoly,The reason why his work survives until today is not because part of it expresses the Puritan theology,but because of its artistic qualities,and above all because it is at once more faultless and more nobly sustained in music than that of any other English poet.
