Best Answer

Milton reveals Satan's inner motivation, regret, pain and suffering, and hopelessness. He also reveals that Satan is jealous of mankind because God loves them more than him/the angels, so, therefore, he still seeks God's love. Satan feels like he has no other choice but to oppose God, not necessarily because he wants to. Hope I helped

Why is portrayal of Satan is unique in Paradise Lost?

Milton's Depiction of Satan in Paradise Lost is Unique, because while he is definitely a "bad guy", he is sympathetic. We can understand why he makes some of the decisions he does, sympathize with his pain and suffering and understand his final infuriation at God all the way to the end. Paradise Lost was probably the most important (if not the first) piece of literature to analyze Satan not as the archetypal villain he is depicted as according to the church, but as a living being with a brain and emotions.
