Examples Of Dialectical Journal For Paradise Lost

752 Words4 Pages

Dialectical Journal #2 John Milton’s pensive epic poem Paradise Lost amplifies the fate of those who disobey God’s orders will follow the same consequences of banishment in hell as Satan and, his followers received. With Satan and his followers being banished from the heavens after disowning God's rules and starting a war, sent a land “one great furnace flamed, yet from those flames, no light” this place is named hell. Now that they are in hell redemption is wanted from the failure of the first war, Satan’s pride is too strong to let God have victory so he influences the other troops to join him to being another war upon the heavens again results to failure. Dramatic irony is featured in various parts in this poem. Satan and his followers …show more content…

Being that I am 18 now I expected just a bit more freedom like, being able to drive alone, go to parties and have them not call me every 10 mins, even when it comes down to college my mom doesn't want me to be no farther than 10 miles away. So there are some days when I go against their commands only because I feel that I am more responsible and, obviously old enough to be independent and away on my own. I intend to apply at 5 colleges out of the city not because I don’t love them but, they have had me under their roof for 18 years which is long enough, so I need to move on to become a man and learn my mistakes along the way. The belief of punishment that most parents give is not out of hate but, out of love God only banished them so they know that he is the one who is in charge of keeping the balance in order and learn from their mistake, just like how parents punish their children for disobeying the orders given to them because the child need to that the parent is only looking best for the child's health, safety or future. Another connection and agreement I have with Milton’s idea is that God doesn't just sit and watch the people in hell just suffer to be evil but those are the people who had the option to follow God’s orders and they chose not to, so the price for their doing is to in a place of darkness,pain, and loneliness. I feel the same way when it comes to students

    Connector-The Chrysalids The first connection I can make is a text to world connection. The point I would like to relate is how norms and deviations are separated in the book and that can also occur in real life. It is not to the extreme of banning them from the country like how deviations are in Waknuk, but there are several forms of discrimination in the real world. David describes the discrimination of deviations in Waknuk throughout the whole book.

  • Comparing Sinners In The Hands Of An Angry God And Upon The Burning Of Our House

    1000 Words  | 4 Pages

    Jonathan Edwards’s sermon “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God” and Anne Bradstreet’s “Upon the Burning of Our House” seem at first glance quite similar to one another regarding context, however, after taking a closer look, it becomes apparent that there are some substantial differences. These differences cannot be understood without the knowledge of cultural context concerning the Puritan belief system and their lifestyle. “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God” was written with the sole purpose of scaring and intimidating the people that purtinans believed to be sinners. Edwards’s work contributed to a movement called “The Great Awakening”. It’s objective was to make the so-called ‘sinners’ aware of their wrongdoings and compel them to repent.

    If man was never tempted to turn away from God, nothing bad would ever happen. True, life would be extremely different and marvelous, but how would God know if mankind truly loved him? Emma Hughes states, “Paradise Lost illustrates God’s creation of man and free will as evidence of His perfect nature, not as a contradiction of His benevolence,”(Hughes). God creating man with free will was no mistake. Milton states, ¨In the beginning how the Heavens and Earth rose out of Chaos,¨(1, 9).

  • Pathos In John Milton's Paradise Lost

    Satan most effectively utilizes pathos in John Milton’s Paradise Lost in order to persuade his followers to fight against the forces of Heaven. When commenting on the fallen angels’ condition, Satan describes, “Fall'n Cherube, to be weak is miserable Doing or Suffering: but of this be sure, To do ought good never will be our task, But ever to do ill our sole delight,” (Milton ll. 157-160). Satan appeals to the “suffering” of his forces in Hell because of their weakness in not continuing to defy God.

  • Light And Dark Imagery In John Milton's Paradise Lost

    887 Words  | 4 Pages

    Although John Milton’s Paradise Lost remains to be a celebrated piece recounting the spiritual, moral, and cosmological origin of man’s existence, the imagery that Milton places within the novel remains heavily overlooked. The imagery, although initially difficult to recognize, embodies the plight and odyssey of Satan and the general essence of the novel, as the imagery unravels the consequences of temptation that the human soul faces in the descent from heaven into the secular realms. Though various forms of imagery exist within the piece, the contrast between light and dark imagery portrays this viewpoint accurately, but its interplay and intermingling with other imagery, specifically the contrasting imagery of height and depth as well as cold and warmth, remain to be strong points

  • What Is An Allegory In Dante's Inferno

    2050 Words  | 9 Pages

    English writer, A. N. Wilson, in, ‘Dante in Love’, argues that Dante Alighieri is both a poet and a madman in which scenes of violence and malice within inferno are considered. Dante’s structure of the language of the text in inferno is well-thought-out with regards to the use of metaphors to describe the scenes of violence (act of physical force). However with regards to the notion of malice within the poem, the inconsistent and unpredictable use of language within Inferno is taken into consideration. In addition, the occurrence of violence and malicious intent as well as the extent to which the role of inconsistencies appear within the poem, suggests that Dante Alighieri is more than just a late thirteenth century poet. Finally, the significance
