Milton’s story takes a tragic turn as the feud between heaven and hell rages. Envious, hateful and revengeful, Satan enacts his plan to bring Eve, and the entire human race, to ruin. Guide your students through the exciting, penultimate book of Milton’s epic poem with detailed analysis, thought-provoking discussion points and essential essay questions.

I would recommend this resource to teachers and students... I particularly liked the clear, straightforward presentation of historical and social context and the insertion of a sample essay specifically addressing a question in the specification

What do teachers say about this resource? (8215)

I like this resource and would find it extremely useful in my teaching. I particularly liked the clear, straightforward presentation of historical and social context and the insertion of a sample essay specifically addressing a question in the specification. This resource provides excellent revision notes for students to use before examination. It also directs them through all the assessment objectives which is vital as they are now equally weighted... This resource very effectively interprets the specification... Inclusion of critics' views, context and language analysis make this a valuable resource... I would recommend this resource to teachers and students. There are very few study guides focusing solely on Book 9. This will be much sought-after.
