Book Synopsis
This new reading of Paradise Lost concentrates on the analysis of linguistic concepts underlying Milton's epic, and then builds on those concepts with a fresh interpretation that considers the role that Raphael plays in it.

Trade Review
Kuester's argument is lucid and perspicacious, and this book consolidates the argument that Milton viewed semiotic mediation as beneficent and necessary for redemption, rather than as punishment for the Fall…. Fine study into the burgeoning body of important work on Milton's political ethics of representation. * Milton Quarterly *
