Talk:When I Consider How My Light is Spent

minor changes edit

I made some minor changes to conform the text presented here to the Norton Anthology of Poetry, Fourth Edition. They seem to clarify the local meaning of the poem somewhat but other editions of the text differ. So further emendations by a Milton authority might be advisable - even a return to the previous version.

Retitling and additions edit

I have retitled the page, and added some material, because the title by which we were referring to the poem (On His Blindness) is recognized by all scholars to be inauthentic, and probably quite misleading as regards interpretation. But I don't have good access at the moment to the relevant scholarly works, so I hope other editors can now improve this. seglea (talk) 03:58, 1 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

I have now scrabbled together a few more references to support some statements of obvious facts, but I am not a Milton scholar, and this page badly needs attention from a real expert. seglea (talk) 18:16, 1 January 2016 (UTC)Reply
