This book comprises an extensive series of analyses which span the respective oeuvres of these, surprisingly paired, world literary masters. The poet and novelist-philosopher, though treated separately, nevertheless prove complementary book-fellows. Notably, both espouse and practice a vigilant attentiveness; the obligation to strive for good by one’s lights, and to create lest history repeat; and on rare occasions, a duty to engage in moral contradiction for a higher cause, though only after the most scrupulous reflection. This book presents the ingenious artistry of both writers and further proves their contemporary relevance, as well as giving readers the ability to look at the works of Milton and Camus through a new lens.

Ethan Lewis, Emeritus Professor of English at the University of Illinois-Springfield, has authored eight books of criticism, including Modernist Image, Reflexive Poetics, The Shakespeare Project and Ensuing Essays, Literary Nuances: Millions of Strange Shadows, Literary Essays on Explicable Splendours, and Modern Sonneteers, Hilary Mantel, and Critical Letters: A Triptych. His collaboration with Robert Kuhn McGregor, Conundrums for the Long Weekend: England, Dorothy L. Sayers, and Lord Peter Wimsey, garnered the Edgar Award for Critical Monograph on Mystery Author. He has also published three volumes of poetry.
