V. The Divorce Tracts
Detail
THE DIVORCE TRACTS: During the civil war period Milton wrote over twenty pamphlets in defense of "three varieties of liberty," as he put it in 1654: "ecclesiastical liberty, domestic or personal liberty, and civil liberty." The five pamphlets on "domestic liberty" -- his so-called divorce tracts -- boldly argued for the liberty to choose a spouse and to choose again if that choice proved in error. His views were called "licentious, new and dangerous," and he was the subject of a Parliamentary inquiry. Contemporaries wanted the books suppressed, which may have contributed to his commitment to the freedom of the press.

Name
Milton, The Judgement of Martin Bucer, Concerning Divorce...To the Parlament of England...Publisht by Authoritie (Printed by Matthew Simmons, 1644)
Detail
In his effort to present divorce as a legitimate concern (and not the view of a heretic), Milton translated part of Martin Bucer's De Regno Christi -- On the Kingdom of Christ -- a work of theocratic politics that Bucer had written in England during the reign of Edward VI. Bucer was a major Reformation figure, imported to England in the early establishment of English Protestantism. Unlike other Miltonic tracts of the period, which were not licensed for publication, Milton could publish this tract "by Authority" -- no one would bar him from publishing a translation of a venerated figure. In this tract, Milton addresses the Parliament, as usual, but he gives up on the Presbyterian Westminster Assembly.
