Paradise Lost is John Milton's great English epic poem on the Fall of Man, Satan's rebellion, and the loss of Eden. First published in 1667 and later revised into the twelve-book form, the poem retells the biblical story of Adam and Eve with vast imaginative scope, moving through Heaven, Hell, Chaos, and Paradise while examining obedience, pride, temptation, free will, divine justice, and human responsibility. It is one of the central works of English literature and one of the most influential long poems in the language.

Written in blank verse of extraordinary force and complexity, Paradise Lost joins classical epic structure with Christian theology and seventeenth-century political and moral seriousness. Milton's Satan, Adam, Eve, and the angelic powers remain among the most debated figures in literary history, and the poem has shaped centuries of poetry, criticism, theology, art, and political thought. For readers of classic poetry, epic literature, English Renaissance writing, Christian literary tradition, and major works of Western literature, Paradise Lost remains indispensable. The first edition appeared in 1667, while the revised twelve-book edition appeared in 1674.
