John Milton's Samson is a figure at once Godly and unGodly. Some recent criticism of Samson Agonistes, with its notion of shifting contexts, treats the play as a repository of conflicting traditions. Between Two Pillars, instead of denying the play's aesthetic integrity, discerns in it a dialectical opposition between Samson's irrevocable election by God and his subjection instanced by his slavery to a fallen, unGodly order.Mayer, Joseph G. is the author of 'Between Two Pillars The Hero's Plight In Samson Agonistes And Paradise Regained', published 2004 under ISBN 9780761829720 and ISBN 0761829725.
