Satan as a Renaissance character
match as metempsychosis character OR Paradise Lost under the run of renaissance. Milton is the son both of the spiritual rebirth and Reformation. Renaissance begins with the ancient Greek literature. Renaissance meaner rebirth of an interest in classical Greek literature. Renaissance bring back mans interest in the world and gave him new eyes to look upon the beauty, love, life, schooling and liberty. The earlier world was Thee-centric, meaner the God or Church was at the centre. each(prenominal) and everything was dominated by Church. Man has had to what Church wanted him to do. Such was the motive of middle age ( originally renaissance).It is in 15th and 16th centuries that the English poets started rendering the classical Greek literature, and the basic theme in that literature was humanism I. E. The other name of Renaissance. And in renaissance the world became Homo-centric. There argon basically three chief features of Renaissance or Classicism- 1. Individualism mean er the soul is of the essence(p), man is important. Man is the centre of each and everything. Human values, emotions, feelings, desires, are important. They should be fulfilled. 2. Worldliness meaner the things of this world, attractions of the world, like- beauty, retaliate, love, power, wealth.Meaner this world should not be neglected. 3. Strong determination / effectuality of musical theme meaner that the mind plays a role like queen of trickster in our life. It is our strength of mind or our attitude that can devote a hell of heaven or a heaven of hell. hellion-a renaissance character- All these features of classicism are clearly visible in Satan also. The ideology of Individualism or Humanism comes from the classical Greek literature. It dialogue about that man should be free, liberal. He shouldnt be under the supervising of anybody whether it is any person or God. This is what happened during the period of incessant.Society or man challenged the position of churc h. And this mental of ideology is reflected very clearly in Satins character. -First he revolted against God. He challenged the authority of the God. -He talks about the end of slavery and lays stress on e tonicity. -He talks about liberty, power- To reign is the worth ambition, though in Hell -Then Satan talks about the freedom, democratic ideology- best(p) to reign in Hell than serve in heaven Awake, arise, or be for ever fallen Satan is typically a bored fellow. He is a lover of the ambition to become a ruler.He has the total love for power- Profoundest Hell, Receive thy new possessor, one(a) who brings A mind not to be flipd by place or time here(predicate) we may reign secure, and in my choice, To reign is the worth ambition, though in Hell hatred , Jealousy, revenge. He has -So far as the things like Jealousy, revenge are concerned, a person can go to any issue to achieve his aims. Here Satan also uses the false method, cunning scheme to take revenge from God. Stirred up with me. Y and revenge, deceived The mother of reality And we can see that what a strength of mind Satan has up to now after losing to God,Satan speaks like a modern politician that nothing is lost, everything is under-control. What though the field be lost? All is not lost- the unconquerable leave -Satan has the courage not to bend before anybody. And courage never to twine or yield -Satan says that however they are defeated physically, yet their minds are the same and only mind matters, . , who overcomes By force hath overcome but half his foe -Satan becomes an inspiration for the world that instead of crying one must face each and everything in his way. Is this the region. That we must transport for Heaven? . Be it so Satan is the reflection of such build of determination that no place or time can change ones mind. And only mind matters the most. Receive thy new possessor-one who brings -And mind has very important place in our life, because it is the mind, it is the attitude of ours that in itself can make a situation hell of heaven or heaven of hell. It all depends upon the quality of our mind. The mind is its own place, and in itself Can make a Heaven of Hell, a Hell of Heaven -Satan also talks about that he would not give God the pleasure that he has bend before God. This kind of ideology became an inspiration for the French Revolution 1789).Thats why Satan is called an inspiration behind French Revolution, because the revolt was all about these kind of ideas- individualism, worldliness, and strong determination. The war between Satan and God is a type of war between Evil and Good. And it also symbolizes the conflict of Humanism with the authorization of organized religion or church. It is almost impossible for an artist to save his hit from the blowing wind. So is in the Paradise Lost. As the wind was blowing against the dominance of religion or church, so Milton supported the ideology of renaissance with his tremendous regul ate of Paradise Lost.
