Review of "The Miltonic Moment" by Evans

(Routledge, part of the Taylor & Francis group, 2000) Daalder, Joost

A favourable review of Martin Evans' book, "The Miltonic Moment" (Lexington, Kentucky: University Press of Kentucky, 1998). Evans's thesis is that 'Milton's poems invariably depict the decisive instant in a story, a moment of crisis that takes place just before the action undergoes a dramatic change of course ... The works illuminated here... are all about transition from one form to another... This transformation is often ideological as well as historical or biographical.'
