Descriere scurtă
Notă biografică
JOHN
BUNYAN
(1628-88)
was
born
in
Elstow,
a
village
near
Bedford.
He
went
to
school
in
the
village
and
became
a
travelling
brazier
or
tinker,
like
his
father.
In
1644
he
joined
the
Parliamentary
army,
and
served
in
the
garrison
of
Newport
Pagnell,
a
Bedfordshire
town,
until
1646.
He
married
in
1649
and
had
four
children,
though
the
name
of
his
first
wife
is
unknown.
As
part
of
her
dowry
she
brought
two
popular
books
of
devotion;
and
these,
along
with
a
series
of
experiences,
triggered
a
complex
conversion
experience,
not
fully
resolved
until
1653,
when
Bunyan
joined
a
separatist
congregation
in
Bedford.
Soon
Bunyan
began
preaching
and
engagin
in
controversy
with
other
reiligous
groups.
He
wrote
his
first
book,Some
Gospel
Truths
Openedin
1656.
Soon
after
the
Restoration
he
was
arrested
for
unlicensed
preaching
in
the
village
of
Lower
Samsell
and,
because
he
refused
to
stop
peraching,
remain
in
prison
in
Bedford
for
twelve
years.
His
account
of
his
trial
was
published
posthumously
in
1765.
He was imprisoned again for about six months in 1676. He continued to write, and to preach in Bedfordshire and London. In 1678 he published the first part ofThe Pilgrim's Progress. It became am immediate bestseller, running through twelve ditions and being translated into Dutch, French and Welsh during Bunyan's lifetime; since then it has been traslated into more than two hundred languages. Its counterpart,The Life and Death of Mr Badman(1682) is epic in cope. The second part ofThe Pilgrim's Progresscame out in 1684, partly in response to a number of imitations and spurious sequels.A Book for Boys and Girls, one of the earliest examples of literature for children, was published in 1686.
Bunyan died in 1688 for a fever contracted while riding from Reading to London to try to effect a reconciliation between a father and son. He left a number of works in manuscript, many of them published by Chalres Doe in his folio of 1692, which also contained the first (brief) biography of Bunyan.
ROGER POOLEY teaches at Keele University. His Cambridge Ph.D. thesis on Bunyan was partly supervised by the late Roger Sharrock, the editor of the previous Penguin ClassicsPilgrim's Progress. He is the author ofEnglish Prose of the Seventeenth Century(1993) and a number of shorter pieces on Bunyan and other seventeenth-century figures. He has co-editedThe Lord of the Journey; A Reader in Christina SpiritualityandThe Discerning Reader: Literature and Theory in Christian Perspecitve. He is an active member of the International John Bunyan Society.

Recenzii
"This stunningly executed allegory has furnished the Christian imagination with names and situations that have now infiltrated most of our literature. Not often does something so popular manage also to be accurate."--Eugene Peterson, Take and Read
