Focusing on John Milton's Commonplace book, this explores Milton's reading practices and the ways he used this reading in his writing. Close study of the Commonplace Book suggests that this reading record is far from the haphazard collection of notes that it first appears but is instead a program of research which had its own ideology that responded to the reading habits and practices of Milton's contemporaries.
