Summary

Polytheism and "truest poesie"--The discourse of monotheism : occult monotheism and the abstract godhead -- God and Genesis 18 in Paradise lost -- The war in heaven and deism -- The discourse of monotheism : Socinianism and deism -- The Son after the Trinity -- Revelation and Samson's sense of heaven's desertion -- Monotheism, the sublime, and allegory -- "Examining Milton's poetry in the context of many debates swirling around polytheism and monotheism, this study demonstrates the profound differences between doctrinal discourse and narrative poetry and how neither is, individually, able to fully represent Milton's monotheism--or, as Abraham Stoll says, 'a God of flickering subjectivity' "--Provided by publisher.
