- W2010512495 abstract "In one respect at least the novels of Ronald Firbank resemble Paradise Lost. They are likely to be appreciated only by a small, select audience; though had Firbank wished to call upon some heavenly power to find him such an audience, he would probably have invoked not Urania but one of the many saints of his own invention, St. Automona di Meris or the Blessed St. Elizabeth Bathilde “who, by dint of skipping, changed her sex at the age of forty and became a man.” It would be idle, however, to maintain that Milton and Firbank have much else in common. Milton writes of Good and Evil and holds strong opinions about them. Firbank is unaware of their existence. There is plenty of naughtiness in his stories, “making light of sacred things” and bawdy innuendo, but moral judgment and righteous indignation are conspicuously absent. One would no more think of looking for a serious purpose in Valmouth than in Peter Rabbit. When W. H. Auden said that the authors whom he would most have wished to write like were Firbank, Potter, Carroll, Lear, he put Firbank in the right company as an inspired writer of nonsense. Milton, of course, occasionally deviates into nonsense, especially in dealing with angels; but Firbank never deviates into sense, and rarely into dulness." @default.
