Satan’s Fall | John Milton’s Paradise Lost - Episode 1

Описание: Satan was once Heaven’s brightest angel.
Now, he is its greatest outcast.
In Episode 1 of our Paradise Lost series, we explore Satan’s fall from Heaven—not as a simple act of rebellion, but as one of the most psychologically complex moments in English literature.
John Milton does not portray Satan as a mindless villain. He presents him as a proud, intelligent, and wounded figure who chooses defiance over submission, even after total defeat. This episode examines how pride, ambition, and the desire for autonomy lead to Satan’s downfall—and why his refusal to repent becomes the foundation of all future evil.

We break down:
Satan’s rebellion against God
The psychology behind his pride
Why Milton makes Satan persuasive, not monstrous
How Hell begins as a mental state before it becomes a place
This episode sets the stage for everything that follows in Paradise Lost: temptation, free will, choice, and consequence.
If you’re interested in English literature, epic poetry, literary psychology, or Milton’s Paradise Lost, this series is designed for you.
Stay with us—because the fall of Satan is only the beginning.
