"Le Paradis Perdu" by John Milton is an epic poem written in the mid-17th century. The work explores the themes of temptation, sin, and redemption through the retelling of the biblical story of humanity's fall from grace. The central figures include Satan, who leads the rebellion against God, and the first humans, Adam and Eve, whose disobedience brings about their expulsion from Paradise. The opening of the poem introduces the grand themes and sets the stage for the narrative that follows. It begins with an invocation to the Muse, asking for inspiration to tell the story of man's disobedience and the loss of Eden. The poem then delves into Satan's backstory, detailing his rebellion against God, the conflict that ensues in heaven, and his eventual expulsion to Hell with his followers. It paints a vivid picture of the despair and turmoil experienced by the fallen angels as they discuss their defeat and contemplate their future, setting up their plot to corrupt God's new creation.
