Milton intended Paradise Lost as a critique of monarchy. Thoughts?

But Milton was a staunch republican during the Civil War. And Paradise Lost CLEARLY isn't just "God is 18000000." But Satan, even if he may initially have a point about blind obedience, is also a retard who gets brutally pwned repeatedly. Seems like the message is: when more powerful entities spend their time dick measuring and manipulating humans, the end result is we get fucked over even when we are just trying our best" (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5788616&forum_id=2в#49365859) |
