"Le Paradis Perdu" by John Milton is an epic poem published in 1667. This masterwork recounts the biblical fall of humanity through Satan's temptation of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. Beginning after Satan's failed rebellion against God, the poem follows his journey to corrupt mankind while exploring profound themes of free will, disobedience, and redemption. Milton's complex portrayal of Satan and the innocent-yet-fallible first humans has sparked centuries of debate, making this linguistically rich epic a cornerstone of literary and theological discourse.
