John Milton, English poet

John Milton (1608-1674), English poet. Milton was born in London and was educated at St. Pauls School and at Christs College, Cambridge. After receiving his MA in 1632 Milton embarked on six years of private study, including travels in Europe where he met Grotius, Galileo and Tasso. On his return to England Milton wrote extensively on church issues such as the power of the bishops and the morality of divorce. The English Civil War gave Milton the chance to flourish in a republican setting, but the Restoration of the monarchy in 1660 meant Milton had to spend some years in hiding from the authorities. It was in this period he started to write his classic blank verse epic poem, Paradise Lost, reflecting his despair at the failure of the revolution. This engraving by Houbraken comes from Birchs The Heads of Illustrious Persons of Great Britain, published at London in 1747.

EDITORS COMMENTS

This print showcases the eminent John Milton, an influential English poet of the 17th century. Born in London and educated at prestigious institutions such as St. Paul's School and Christs College, Cambridge, Milton's intellectual journey was marked by profound encounters with luminaries like Grotius, Galileo, and Tasso during his extensive travels across Europe. With a Master of Arts degree under his belt by 1632, Milton dedicated six years to private study before emerging as a prolific writer on matters concerning the church. His writings delved into contentious issues such as the authority of bishops and the morality of divorce. The tumultuous backdrop of the English Civil War provided fertile ground for Milton's republican ideals to flourish. However, following the Restoration of monarchy in 1660, Milton found himself forced into hiding from authorities who opposed his views. It was during this period that he embarked on crafting his masterpiece: Paradise Lost—a poignant blank verse epic poem reflecting his despair over the revolution's failure. The monochrome engraving captured by Houbraken is part of Birchs The Heads of Illustrious Persons of Great Britain published in London in 1747—an enduring testament to Milton's enduring legacy. This image transports us back to a time when political turmoil shaped literary expression profoundly—showcasing not only an iconic figure but also encapsulating an era defined by rebellion and resilience.
