Milton vs. Shakespeare: Blasphemy or Genius? | Rizzle Clips

Shakespeare's throne is under attack! This 2014 Intelligence Squared debate challenges the Bard's dominance with a surprising contender: John Milton. Author Nigel Smith argues that Milton's Paradise Lost, with its epic scope and exploration of heaven, hell, and the human condition, surpasses Shakespeare's plays. We meet a complex Satan, a pre-lapsarian world of innocence, and language so powerful it left Philip Pullman speechless. Can Milton dethrone the Bard? Watch to see why this literary heavyweight fight might just change the way you see both authors.
