    poetry. For the most part‚ John Milton follows the three main guidelines that construct an epic poem. By beginning in a formal way‚ having supernatural warfare‚ and engaging a character in a dark voyage‚ John Milton clearly uses classical epic characteristics. In traditional epic poetry‚ the poet asks a muse to speak through him. In the very beginning‚ Milton invokes a muse to inspire and instruct him. "I thence invoke thy aid to my adventurous song/…instruct me‚ for Thou know’st" (Book 1 ll 13-19)

The two writings that I chose were “The Negro’s Complaint” and “The Sorrows of Yamba”. I chose these two because they seemed interesting. Both writings seem to focus on slaves wanting to be free.

    A Crime of Fate In Paradise Lost‚ Adam and Eve commit the first sin‚ and from this point on‚ all other sins are mere copies of this. Alexander Pope uses this to his benefit when he depicts the crime in The Rape of the Lock. By alluding to Milton’s work‚ Pope is able to comically refer to the cutting of a lock of hair as a tragic and epic event. In doing this‚ he paradoxically assumes that the crime is not one of personal fault‚ but one fated to happen by God‚ just as in Paradise Lost
