The Cosmic Battle for Humanity's Soul
Paradise Lost opens with one of literature's most unforgettable scenes: Satan and his rebel angels cast into Hell after their failed uprising against God. These fallen angels, though defeated, retain a terrible majesty. Satan stands "like a tower" above his followers, his face bearing "deep scars of thunder" yet showing "dauntless courage." Looking upon the millions condemned for following him, he is moved to tears before addressing them with stirring eloquence. Rather than accepting defeat, he proposes continuing their resistance through "fraud or guile," targeting God's rumored new creation-a perfect world with beings equal to Heaven's sons. His defiant declaration that "Peace is despaired; for who can think submission? War, then, war" inspires his followers to clash their shields in rebellion. What makes this opening so compelling is Milton's portrayal of Satan as a complex, almost sympathetic character. Unlike earlier depictions of the devil as simply evil, Milton's Satan displays leadership, eloquence, and determination in cosmic defeat. This nuanced characterization has led many readers throughout history to find themselves reluctantly admiring Satan's refusal to surrender, even while recognizing the moral bankruptcy of his rebellion.
