Worldview Guide for Paradise Lost
$7.99
“It can surely be said that the poem is unique. For it is in many ways a book that teaches you the story of how you came to be reading the book. The subject of the poem is a tale of how the reader came to be fallen, and thus quite capable of utterly misreading Satan as a hero and God as a tyrant; and further, how mankind fell in Adam and is—mercifully—redeemed in the Second Adam.” ~From Dr. Horner’s worldview guide
Look Inside the Guide
The Worldview Guides from the Canon Classics Literature Series provide an aesthetic and thematic Christian perspective on the most definitive and daunting works of Western Literature. Each Worldview Guide presents the big picture (both the good and the bad) without neglecting the details. Each Worldview Guide is a friendly literary coach—and a treasure map, and a compass, and a key—to help teachers, parents, and students appreciate, critique, and begin to master the classics.
The bite-size WGs are divided into these ten sections (with some variation due to genre): Introduction, The World Around, About the Author, What Other Notables Said, Setting, Characters, & Plot Summary, Worldview Analysis, Quotables, 21 Significant Questions & Answers, and Further Discussion & Review.
A free classics test and answer key are also available here.
