John Milton (1608–74) was an English poet, early advocate for free speech, man of letters, and served under Oliver Cromwell during the years after the English Civil War. Regarded as one of the greatest writers in the English language, he wrote at a time of severe religious and political upheaval. He is best known for his epic poem Paradise Lost (1667).
