The seventeenth century marked an epoch in scientific history. Great scientists such as Galileo and Kepler constructed a new universe through their astronomical accomplishments, laying the foundations for modern science. On the other hand, however, it was the heated, longrunning and widespread debates between the scientists and the Paracelsians, a school of Mysticism or Hermeticism, that was characteristic of science in Milton’s day. While scientists used mathematics in their researches, the Paracelsians’ method of inquiry was alchemy. The Paracelsians thought themselves to be alchemical natural philosophers and earnestly sought to construct a universal philosophy of nature which conformed to religious truth. Therefore, they had to learn Holy Scripture through reading, and study the Book of Nature through their own observations and analyses. In Paradise Lost, Milton takes a great interest in the Paracelsian debates and obviously shows his viewpoint. He criticizes the scientists for their methodology, and supports the Paracelsians, sharing the ancient Platonic universe with them. In this ways, Milton expresses his belief in the possibility of pragmatic science ― which Francis Bacon has advocated ― for pursuit of the unlimited improvement of material life. He is convinced that this possibility is great enough as to recover the Fall of Man; therefore, the very advancement of pragmatic science should be the object of education. He presents his ideal plan for this education in Of Education (1644).},
