Queer Milton is the first book-length study dedicated to anti-heteronormative approaches to the poetry and prose of John Milton. Organized into sections on "Eroticism and Form" and "Temporality and Affect," essays in this volume read Milton's works through radical queer interpretive frameworks that have elsewhere animated and enriched Renaissance Studies. Leveraging insights from recent queer work and related fields, contributions demonstrate diverse possible futures for Queer Milton Studies. At the same time, Queer Milton bears witness to the capacity for queer to arbitrate debates that have shaped, and indeed continue to shape, developments in the field of Milton Studies.
David L. Orvis is Professor of English at Appalachian State University, USA. He is co-editor of Psalms in the Early Modern World (2011) and The Noble Flame of Katherine Philips: A Poetics of Culture, Politics, and Friendship (2015).

Rezensionen
"Stockton assures that the collection's intention is not to portray Milton as the unitary master of his own meaning. ... With respect to this goal, I say with conviction: mission accomplished. I am better off for having met all these queer Miltons, and I commend them to your acquaintance." (Kent R. Lehnhof, Milton Quarterly, Vol. 53 (4), 2019)
