Paradise Lost

Paradise Lost Book 10
paradise Lost is a epic poem by John Milton.  It is mainly about the fall of man from heaven.
In earlier book it happens that God has created the universe and Adam & Eve to live in.
But satan wanted to take revenge on God. Because he cant do anything to God, he decides to destroy creation of God.
so he enters into the garden of Eden into the form of serpant. Serpant waits for Eve to be alone. When Satan looks her for the first time, he for a while forgets his evil intentions. He was mesmorized by her beauty.
But then he gains his consciousness, and then Temptation scene begins. Any how he convinces Eve to taste the forbidden fruit of knowledge.
Eve then realises the mistake she had done. Adam comes to know about Eve's tasting of forbidden fruit of Knowledge. Adam willingly eats the fruit of knowledge, because he thinks that he cant live without Eve. Thus fall of man happens from Paradise. Both first time becomes conscious about their nakedness & goes into wild and enjoys the sex.

HUMANISM:-

Humanism is important characteristics of Renaissance. Adam willingly tastes  fruit & chooses Eve. This means that he neglects god for Eve. No writer can esacape the impact of the time, in which he is writting. Renaissance was a time when religion was replaced by science. This effect is seen in Paradise Lost.
