Milton’s Inward Liberty

Arts & Literature

“Milton's Inward Liberty is a major contribution to Milton studies and, underscoring the necessity of approaching Milton's work and theology iuxta propria principia, proposes a new, challenging hermeneutical paradigm. Falcone's exacting theological reading reverses the traditional wisdom of a 'liberal' Milton, and by highlighting the ultimate incompatibility of the way of the self and the way of grace, convincingly presents true liberty as an inward reality and the ruling principle underlying Milton's work.”
