The author employs the philosophical frameworks of Martin Heidegger and Hans-Georg Gadamer to explore the poem's profound theological and existential dimensions. The analysis is structured around a 'fusion of horizons,' systematically interpreting Milton's epic through the lenses of key biblical texts, including Genesis, the prophecies of Isaiah, and New Testament concepts of salvation. By examining the interplay between the reader’s 'fore-structure' of understanding and the world of the text, the book illuminates how Paradise Lost functions as a complex meditation on the Logos, creation, love, and free will. It offers a rigorous analysis of central characters—Satan, Christ, Adam, and Eve—re-evaluating their choices within a rich tapestry of scriptural and philosophical thought. This work is an essential contribution for scholars and advanced students of Milton, literary theory, hermeneutics, philosophy, and the intersection of theology and literature.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eBiography\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n  \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n    \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAuthor(s):\u003c\/span\u003e \n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePaul Kuei-chi Tseng is assistant professor at the National Taipei University of Nursing and Health Sciences , National Taipei University of Technology, and National Open University.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5 class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n  \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eReviews\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis title is currently being reviewed.
