Description

Citing Milton''s major prose works from the civil war through to the Restoration, Walker reveals a Milton who is antiformalist in his constitutional thought, unrevolutionary in his general socio-political outlook, and markedly illiberal on a wide range of social, religious and political issues. Walker''s book is thus a highly provocative challenge to the current consensus that Milton is an early modern proponent of republicanism, radicalism, revolution and liberalism.
