The age of Milton is an era of extreme religious and political polarization, revolving around reforms in the English Church commonly known as Puritanism. It is a disturbing epoch questioning Christianity as a moral order, having serious political implications. In the midst of a turbulent and highly contested religious debate, Milton appeared to be standing alone, mostly because of his distinct and individual stand of seeing the turmoil as a devout Christian as well as a rational being. Not very many agreed to his point of view, at times; a contradictory stance during this particular phase of the English politico-religious and literary history roughly beginning in the age James I (1566-1625) to that of Charles I (1600-1649). This paper, through an analysis of some of his major works, seeks to situate Milton’s convictions as a Puritan, which is distinctly Miltonic in essence, as well as explores his impassioned voice in support of reason and human liberty
