Content:
Engaging with heady topics such as knowledge, meaningful agency, vitality, and gratitude, 'Ascent' advances an argument regarding Milton's 'Paradise Lost' and the role of the imagination in religion. Miltonists are offered not a contextualization of Milton's views relative to his contemporaries or predecessors, but rather an attempt to bring him into conversation with pressing topics of contemporary philosophy.
