Abstract: Satan is a very important literary image in western history. As the first one who betrayed God, his ambition and power have been proved. For centuries he has left a deep impression on people as a cruel devil but in fact he is a hero who changes our life and belief. He inspires his followers in the Hell and declares a war against the Heaven. He creates a new world with adamantine faith and by continuous struggle he changes the history like Cromwell in reality.
Key Words: paradise lost, Satan, tragedy, individual heroism
