[...]Milton's "God feels, and he feels better" (23). The next six essays are more varied in both subject and methodology - ranging from the philosophical problem of free will in a newly mechanical universe to the meanings implicit in the material conditions of early modern cultural production; from the influence of Ramist logic on angelic debate in Paradise Lost to the theological underpinning of Milton's political argument against licensing in the Areopagitica; from the nature and meaning of solitude in Paradise Regained to the truly bizarre history of Milton's defamation as a papist in Restoration polemics. Building on the work of Shakespearean Coleman Hutchinson, Randall Ingram examines the physical volume of Milton's 1 645 Poems (in particular the typology and page-setting of "Lycidas") to argue that although examining nonverbal features of an early modern text involves the risk of projecting our own preconceptions, "ignoring those features risks forfeiting sensitivity to media evident" not only in Milton's works but in many early modern books (127).
