John Milton meeting with Galileo Galilei 1638
John Milton meeting with Galileo Galilei 1638
Seeking Florentine inspiration, 30-year-old Milton visited 77-year-old Galileo. Galileo had been found guilty of heresy by the 1633 Inquisition, for writing that the Earth revolves around the Sun. When Milton met him, Galileo was blind and sequestered under house arrest. His meeting with the brave scientist who had fallen victim to censorship, a censorship that Milton denounced, made a profound impact on the English man of letters.
