Orson F. Whitney's Elias-An Epic of the Ages stands as Mormonism's most ambitious literary achievement, a sweeping poetic retelling of the plan of salvation and the Restoration. First published in 1904 and refined in Whitney's 1914 edition, the ten-canto epic draws upon scripture, history, and inspired imagination to place the life and mission of Jesus Christ at the center of a cosmic narrative that spans premortality, the Savior's mortal ministry, the apostasy, and the dispensation of the fulness of times. In the tradition of Milton's Paradise Lost and Dante's Divine Comedy, Whitney sought to give his faith a literary monument equal to its spiritual grandeur-an epic in which doctrine, history, and prophecy meet in verse.
This new critical edition, edited by Reid L. Neilson, presents the definitive text of Whitney's 1914 revision alongside rich historical context, literary analysis, and contemporary responses that situate Elias in the cultural and religious landscape of turn-of-the-century Mormonism. Both a devotional masterpiece and a literary artifact, Elias-An Epic of the Ages invites modern readers to encounter Whitney's soaring vision anew.
