Structure in Milton's Poetry
Milton's skill in constructing poems whose structure is determined, not by rule or precedent, but by the thought to be expressed, is one of his chief accomplishments as a creative artist. Professor Condee analyzes seventeen of Milton's poems, both early and late, well and badly organized, in order to trace the poet's developing ability to create increasingly complex poetic structures. Three aspects of Milton's use of poetic structure are stressed: the relation of the parts to the whole and parts to parts, his ability to unite actual events with the poetic situation, and his use and variation of literary tradition to establish the desired structural unity.
Sweet Pine Saints and Sinners
Theodore Lancaster, the man responsible for training the fourteen spy squirrels that caused an international stink after being caught and killed in Iran, moved to Sweet Pine to retrain the rest of the squirrel team to steal jewelry. His largest and smartest squirrel, Goliath, successfully stole a magnificent diamond bracelet, but when Theo saw the hurt caused by the theft, he secretly returned the bracelet and left town without a word. On his way out of town, he placed a beautiful porcelain squirrel on the mantle of the woman he had come to admire. Now a year had passed, and Theodore had returned to Sweet Pine to seek forgiveness from those he had hurt. As he visited those involved, he realized a couple of Sweet Pine's less honorable citizens were racing to find the lost treasures of Col. Rance Bigley, the hero of the War Between the States. They were willing to do whatever it took to steal the gold and jewels. It was up to him to save Sweet Pine from murder and mayhem. Maybe, along the way, he would also find the way to win the heart of his one true love.
