Gender and the Power of Relationship: "United as one individual Soul" in Paradise Lost

This book is an analysis that blends the biblical story and analyses of Adam and Eve, alongside with John Milton’s Paradise Lost. Contrasting 17th century commentary on the biblical story alongside Milton’s work, the book explores the roles that gender and power play, evoking philosophy in the structure and happenings in both. It explores different dualities and dialectics where values are illuminated and different interpretations in the significance of these works is evoked.
