Publisher Description: Debate about the authorship of the manuscript known to us as De Doctrina Christiana has bedeviled Milton studies over recent years. In this book four leading scholars give an account of the research project that demonstrated its Miltonic provenance beyond reasonable doubt. But the authors do much more besides, locating Milton's systematic theology in its broader European context, picking open the stages and processes of its composition, and analyzing its Latinity. |
