Overview

Het Paradijs Verloren is Jan Jakob Lodewijk ten Kate's Dutch translation of John Milton's epic poem, ""Paradise Lost."" This work retells the biblical story of the Fall of Man: the temptation of Adam and Eve by the fallen angel Satan and their expulsion from the Garden of Eden. Presented in twelve books (or 'zangen'), Milton's masterpiece, skillfully rendered into Dutch, explores themes of good and evil, obedience and disobedience, and the consequences of free will. Ten Kate's translation brings Milton's profound theological and literary achievement to a Dutch-speaking audience, preserving the power and beauty of the original work. This edition offers readers a chance to experience a classic of English literature in a new linguistic context, highlighting the enduring appeal of Milton's vision and the translator's artful interpretation.
