      Of man's first disobedience, and the fruit Of that forbidden tree, whose mortal taste Brought death into the world... Sing heavenly muse' From almost the moment of its first publication in 1667, Paradise Lost was considered a classic. It is difficult now to appreciate both how audacious an undertaking it represents, and how astonishing its immediate and continued success was. Over the course of twelve books Milton wrote an epic poem that would 'justify the ways of God to men', a mission that required a complex drama whose source is both historical and deeply personal. The struggle for ascendancy between God and Satan is played out across hell, heaven, and earth but the consequences of the Fall are all too humanly tragic - pride, ambition, and aspiration the motivating forces. In this new edition derived from their acclaimed Oxford Authors text, Stephen Orgel and Jonathan Goldberg discuss the complexity of Milton's poem in a new introduction, and on-page notes explainits language and allusions.

      Too many consider the victorious Christian life a ''super deluxe'' version instead of normality and are ''so busy enduring their failure that they have no time to enjoy their faith.'' The mystery of what Christians have been born again to ''become'' is in Jesus Christ - the secret of a changed life is an exchanged life.

      The Life of Sean Connery

      This biography of Sean Connery takes the reader from Connery's birth in 1930 in a working-class district of Edinburgh to the present as one of the most uncompromising of film actors. Connery became an actor almost by mistake when a friend suggested he answer an advertisement for extras for the touring stage production of "South Pacific". From there, he gradually built a reputation until he landed the part of James Bond in "Dr No". Determined not to be typecast, he abandoned Bond after five films, but was twice enticed back. The author also chronicles Connery's private life, including his marriages to Diane Cilento and Micheline Roquebrune, his work for charity and his political involvement in his beloved Scotland.
