On Friday May 1, beginning at 8 AM and continuing until the poem is finished, the students of EN 335 (Milton) will be conducting a marathon reading of Milton\u2019s Paradise Lost in the Pearce Foyer of Gorgas Library (second floor).\u00a0 Additional copies of the poem will be available; people are free to join in the reading for as brief or as long a period as they like.\u00a0 Stop by and listen to some of the most beautiful poetry in the English language!<\/p>\n
The students (and any guest readers) will be reading all 10,367 of the 1671 edition of Paradise Lost aloud.\u00a0 The reading is partly in honor of Milton\u2019s 400th birthday, but also in celebration of the vibrancy and language of his poem.\u00a0 All are welcome to come listen or to join in and read as much or as little as they like.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
