On the Image of Satan in Paradise Lost
The success of Milton?s Paradise Lost owes much to the depiction of the main epicimage of Satan whose attributes enable him to achieve tragic status. Although Satan may be an epic machine, he is best portrayed as the tragic anti-hero of paradise Lost. The critics in the world have been concerning the image of Satan in Paradise Lost, whose complexity makes the poem more controversial.The reason why the image under Milton?s pen is so complex is that the Satan attracts the poet?s inner force, which drives him to change the people?s traditional ideas and cause resonance of all the revolutionaries.

《失乐园》读后感
光阴荏苒，岁月如一去不复返的列车，又匆匆地带走了一年。独自一人在家过年，给了我一份清静，也给了我看完《失乐园》这本书的机会。小说的开始并没有我想象中那样精彩，甚至，我以为它和近年来流行的各种写实主义现代派小说没有什么不同——美丽而孤独的女人、有钱而冷酷的男人、精致的餐具、精美的菜肴，而这一切，不过是为了没完没了的床上戏作铺垫。我以为《失乐园》也会同样浅薄轻松，那样的话，它就只配被当作像《废都》那样纯粹追求感官刺激的都市色情小说了。我很高兴《失乐园》并不是这样一部浅薄的小说。越往后看，我越感受到了它的深沉与凝重——爱的深沉与凝重。我一直以为，男人是不可能了解女人的爱情，虽然他们是女人恋爱的对象。爱一个人可以爱到想要杀死他！从古到今有几个人敢说出这样的话？记得以前朋友给我说起过一个英文故事，讲的是一位老姑娘爱上了远方来的“打工仔”，可是后来不知为何“打工仔”怀念远方的家人，想要回家去了。老姑娘艾米莉怕情郎一去不复返，在情郎准备离开的前夜杀死了他，并把他的尸体放在她自己的床上，这样就可以永远和心爱的人在一起...... 我相信很多人都会以为艾米莉疯了，而我，却深信这才是爱的真谛！当一对相爱的情人相互爱到了极至，当爱情到达了不可能再高的高度，我相信真心相爱的人是愿意共赴死亡之旅的。其实，对他们来说，这并不是生命的终结，而是要将快乐与幸福永远地封存起来。久木和凛子是在同时到达高潮的那一刹那共赴黄泉的，对他们来说，还有什么比这更幸福与快乐的呢？！比起艾米莉，凛子简直是幸福得让人嫉妒！因为她是和心爱的人一起登

《失乐园》读后感
初二（8）班 朱嘉尧
《失乐园》著于17世纪中叶，它无疑是弥尔顿最伟大的诗作，和荷马的《伊利亚特》、维吉尔的《伊尼德》、但丁的《神曲》同为西方世界少数不可企及的史诗范例。
约翰·弥尔顿（1608~1674），17世纪英国最著名的诗人、思想家、政治家、政论家，是17世纪进步文化的基石，文艺复兴运动最后的殿将和启蒙思想的先驱者。晚年三大诗作《失乐园》、《复乐园》、《力士参孙》将他推向巅峰。
《失乐园》共一万行，十二卷。它以丰富的想象力，夸张的手法，讲述了这样的一个故事：亚当和夏娃违反天神的命令，偷食了“知识树”上的果实，因而失去他们所曾住过的乐园。其中主要的原因是蛇，撒旦附着在其身上的蛇。他曾反叛天神，最终被天神逐出天界，落入地狱，忍受痛苦的煎熬??亚当和夏娃告别了伊甸园，他们将在这个地球上踏着漫长的征途。
《失乐园》中亚当和夏娃的故事让我明白：人类的发展历程是由知识和劳动推动的。亚当和夏娃在伊甸园里原本只靠采野果过活，但已养成了劳动的习惯；当吃下“知识树”的果实后，又拥有了知识。上帝害怕他们会因此而变得聪明，背叛他，所以才把他们逐出伊甸园。他们知道，当走出伊甸园后，就必须要靠劳动来养活自己、积累财富。从此，他们就在地球上发展，最终拥有了自己的子孙—人。

Milton is a revolutionary activist, he was willing to contribute his passion to his motherland. He opposed to royal tyranny and was prepared to attack it by writing poets.

《失乐园》读后感
花了三个晚上看完了日本作家渡边淳一的《失乐园》。说句心里话，我没有看懂！真的没有看懂作者想要表达的难道仅仅是“爱情至上”这个理念么？
因为人到中年，因为夫妻之间的感情不如原先那么炽烈，因为外面的诱惑太大??这样就可以背着自己的爱人在外面找“小三儿”了么？我不懂！
难道这样的爱情还要被称作至高无上的爱情么？久木，一个五十多岁得男人了，家里有着那么一个贤惠的妻子，女儿也已经长大出嫁。自己也算是有着一个还算稳定的工作。至于那个淩子，就更是让人理解不了了。自己的丈夫也算是个比较有成就的医生，自己的家庭主妇做的是那么的舒服。
这些人难道就仅仅是因为“性”满足不了，就可以这么大大方方的出去找情人了么？这个社会是怎么了呢？至少我现在是理解不了的！
既然做出决定，跪着也要走完自己的选择的路！既然当初是那么的爱着对方，为什么就不能还和当初一样爱着对方呢？毕竟你们是“夫妻”啊，“夫妻”的含义远远不像男女朋友关系那么的简单啊。这里面充斥着太多的责任与义务。
因为“性”就可以放弃一切，不顾一切，违背一切，那人活着还和动物有什么区别呢？ 现在的我还是个单身，我也在努力的寻找着自己的另一半！至少我现在是希望自己能够找到那个最适合自己的另一半。为了爱情，为了真正夫妻之间的爱情，我和他都要努力的去为了“爱情”，为了“责任”，让对方拥有一个幸福的“性”。

《失乐园》爱与性的执着探索
《失乐园》是一部情爱小说，讲述的是男主角久木，在很偶然的情况下认识了女主角凛子。两人在对不冷不热的家庭关系感到失望后结识，变很快脱离原本生活的轨道，堕入世人唾弃的“婚外恋”当中。两人一次又一次的男欢女爱，让他们越发地感觉到彼此是这么的不可或缺，沉溺发现身体后的大喜与体验。甚至是为凛子父亲守灵的那一夜，他们也难以自持，鱼水寻欢。但两人不伦的事实，使得他们在道德伦理秩序井然的社会中无法容身。久木的家庭爆发冷战，凛子的丈夫嫉恨难平，为了报复凛子不愿离婚，更是寄了封匿名信到久木的公司，令久木黯然辞职。两人毅然决然地抛开一切社会道德的束缚，贪婪地燃烧情欲之火，体验着失去乐园与得到乐园的矛盾。为了爱不从巅峰跌落，两人决定共赴黄泉，奔向至福。
很多人非常困惑，小说为何不厌其烦地描述那些男女性爱的场面，而不是点到为止呢？通过阅读《失乐园》，品味其中的任务的心路历程，再加上查阅相关资料，在此想谈谈一些个人浅薄的想法。
作者渡边淳一的早期作品属于“医学校说”，大多紧扣生死主题，描写人物的坎坷命运。五十岁左右的时候他开始涉足爱与性、婚外情方面的题材。作品无外乎是围绕中年人的情感危机，陷入不伦恋爱的男女之间展开。导致这一转变的契机，想必是他的一些亲身经历。

Paradise Lost
Melton's magnum opus, the blank-verse epic poem Paradise Lost, was composed by the blind and impoverished Milton from 1658 to 1664 (first edition) with small but significant revisions published in 1674 (second edition). As a blind poet, Milton dictated his verse to a series of aides in his employ. It has been argued that the poem reflects his personal despair at the failure of the Revolution, yet affirms an ultimate optimism in human potential.
The extract from Paradise Lost ids mainly talking about: Mammon who was the least erected spirit that fell from Heaven, discovered and robbed wealth with evil and greed from earth to build his paradise. When he was in Heaven, he was preferred gold and pavement other than admiring holy and bright side. This time, Mammon educated people to be greed and evil. He led a group of people to seize treasure from the mother of earth. With spade and pickax, all the miseducated men were devoted to trenching a field or casting a rampart. Soon his group had opened the hill into a spacious wound and gained ribs of gold. Meantime, another team digged many caves, magic flames under caves melted the gold and then pured all those with somewhat magic thicks. At the same time, the third groups had finished various models for architecture. Still with magic power, all the gold in boiled liquid flowed followed pipes of the buildings. It sounds like a pleasure beautiful music. Quickly and unexpected, a resplendent and magnificent palace was just stood there.
