Synopsis:
Bunyan in Our Time brings together eight original essays by New World Scholars as a fitting celebration of the tercentenary of the death of the great seventeenth-century religious writer and contender for freedom of conscience, John Bunyan. The Essays reflect various ways of interpreting Bunyan and his writings. They reach back into Bunyan's manipulations of the floating proverbs of his period and extend as far forward as the comparison between The Pilgrim's Progress and Lewis's The Pilgrim's Regress." Includes essays on : Bunyan's Proverbial Language; Byan's Satire & Its Biblical Souces; Bunyan's Scriptural Acts; Allegry as Sacred Sport: Manipulation of the Reader; Falling into Allegory: The 'Apology' to The Pilgrim's Progress and Bunyan's Scriptural Methodology; The Spirit and the State: Bunyan and the Stuart State; Marxist Perspectives on Bunyan; Pilgrim's Progress & The Pilgrim's Regress: John Bunyan and C.S. Lewis on the Shape of the Christian Quest
