When discussing Milton’s choice not to ever offer the Truth, scholar Stanley Fish suggests Milton made this omission strategically in order to support the argument that Truth cannot be contained.

The key to understanding it is recognizing what it's about -- the real question here is, "are events defined solely by their presence in human experience?". But what defines what a human experience is? Is the expression something that should be interpreted literally (in that all that is required is at least one human perceiving the event), or is it…
