Milton's Leveller God
David WilliamsA look at political evolution in Milton’s epic poems, from feudal monarchy to Leveller-style democracy in heaven and on earth.
David Williams advances a progressive and democratic interpretation of Milton's epics to show they are more relevant than ever. He traces echoes between Milton's texts and Leveller writings that advocated for popular rule, extended suffrage, and religious tolerance, arguing that Milton's God is still the unacknowledged ground of popular sovereignty.
