Question

How do John Milton's sonnets shape society?

Answer 1

John Milton wrote in a wide range of genres, in several languages, and on an extraordinary range of subjects.He remade the moral, political, and cultural world around him; without him, the world we live in would look different.  One thing he offers, therefore, is a case for an education in the humanities – in languages, in philosophy and history, in literature, music, and art – as a route towards meaningful reflection on human life, and towards a considered contribution to civilisation's progress
