How strongly can you hold on to your principles? How much are you willing to sacrifice for what you believe in? The author, John Bunyan, was arrested because of his faith. And when given an ultimatum to stop preaching or face trial, he left his pregnant wife and four children and spent 12 years in prison, where he remained resolute and wrote this masterpiece. This book is Bunyan's spiritual autobiography, his pilgrimage from a profane life filled with cursing and blasphemy, to becoming one of the most prominent religious authors in English literature. It captures amazing moments of self-discovery, and narrates the agonizing turmoil of doubt. It chronicles every incident and every person that gradually brought him to faith and repentance, but not without a long struggle with guilt." Oh, the remembrance of my great sins, of my great temptations, and of my great fear of perishing forever They bring afresh into my mind the remembrance of my great help, my great supports from Heaven, and the great grace that God extended to such a wretch as I." John Bunyan

The Pilgrim's Progress from This World, to That Which Is to Come is a 1678 Christian allegory written by John Bunyan. It is regarded as one of the most significant works of religious, theological fiction in English literature. It has been translated into more than 200 languages, and has never been out of print. It has also been cited as the first novel written in English. Bunyan began his work while in the Bedfordshire county prison for violations of the Conventicle Act of 1664, which prohibited the holding of religious services outside the auspices of the established Church of England. Early Bunyan scholars such as John Brown believed The Pilgrim's Progress was begun in Bunyan's second, shorter imprisonment for six months in 1675, but more recent scholars such as Roger Sharrock believe that it was begun during Bunyan's initial, more lengthy imprisonment from 1660 to 1672 right after he had written his spiritual autobiography Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners

Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners, or a Brief Relation of the Exceeding Mercy of God in Christ to his Poor Servant John Bunyan is a Puritan spiritual autobiography written by John Bunyan. It was composed while Bunyan was serving a twelve-year prison sentence in Bedford gaol for preaching without a license and was first published in 1666. The title contains allusions to two Biblical passages: 'Grace Abounding' is a reference to the Epistle to the Romans 5:20, which states 'Where sin abounded, grace did much more abound' (KJV) and 'Chief of Sinners' refers to the First Epistle to Timothy 1:15, where Paul refers to himself by the same appellation

Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners (1666) is a spiritual autobiography by English author and Puritan preacher John Bunyan. Written while Bunyan was serving a lengthy prison sentence for preaching without a license, Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners is both a record of Bunyan’s personal experience, the story of his conversion, and a document of a time of historical and political crisis in England. The restoration of King Charles II to the throne in 1660—which followed years of sectarian violence and the 1649 execution of his father Charles I—initiated a period of religious and political repression. Nonconformist Christians, and preachers especially, were forbidden from practicing their faith, a crime for which Bunyan was arrested. He was tried and convicted in 1661, spending the next twelve years in Bedford County Gaol. Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners, written and published during this period, is the story of Bunyan’s life, focusing on his conversion to Puritanism and his personal trials as a man punished for his beliefs. Containing numerous biblical references, Bunyan’s work is similar to Saint Augustine’s Confessions in its compositional structure—beginning with the author’s sinful youth, it moves through his process of conversion to his growth as a Christian and rise to the status of preacher. Where it differs, however, is in its detailed description of Bunyan’s arrest and imprisonment, a time he relied on his belief in God to carry him safely through. While less popular than The Pilgrim’s Progress, a Christian allegory Bunyan began writing in jail, Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners is an important and powerful work which has inspired generations of Christians, including John Brown and Martin Luther King Jr. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of John Bunyan’s Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners is a classic of English literature reimagined for modern readers.

The Pilgrim’s Progress (1678) is a Christian allegory by English writer and Puritan preacher John Bunyan. Begun during Bunyan’s twelve-year imprisonment for refusing to abide by English laws forbidding nonconformist evangelism, The Pilgrim’s Progress is his most famous work as well as one of the most republished works in English literary history. Often cited as the first English novel, The Pilgrim’s Progress is told as a dream sequence from the point of view of an omniscient narrator. In the first book of The Pilgrim’s Progress, a man named Christian has a crisis of faith that forces him to reconcile with his sinful past and encourages him to seek salvation by any means necessary. Unsure at first, he is guided by the figure Evangelist, who directs him along the path to the Wicket Gate and instructs him to follow the shining light. On his journey, Christian meets numerous figures, including Pliable, who follows him into the Slough of Despond before freeing himself and abandoning the story’s hero. There, Christian is saved by Help, and continues his journey, encountering Mr. Worldly Wiseman and Mr. Legality, who attempt to sway him from his path to salvation with their knowledge of ethics and the law. But Christian is rescued from their midst by Evangelist, who once again points the way to the Wicket Gate, and through it the path out of the City of Destruction toward the fabled Celestial City. The second book recounts the journey of Christian’s wife and children, who follow his path with the hope that they will join him in attaining spiritual deliverance. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of John Bunyan’s The Pilgrim’s Progress is a classic of English literature reimagined for modern readers.

Kristityn vaellus on yksi englantilaisen kirjallisuuden kaikkien aikojen tunnetuimpia teoksia. Sitä on käännetty lähes kaikille maailman kielille, ja uusintapainoksia on otettu jatkuvasti. Tämä uusi suomennos pyrkii tarkasti, selkeästi ja nykykielellä tuomaan esiin sen mitä Bunyan 1600-luvulla kirjoitti. Tarkoitus on ollut, että kirjan hengellinen ja upea sisältö tulee mahdollisimman alkuperäisenä esiin. Missään aiemmassa suomenkielisessä julkaisussa ei ole ollut mukana Bunyanin omia, lyhyitä ja tekstiä selventäviä huomautuksia. Nyt ne löytyvät tästä teoksesta alaviitteinä kuten myös Bunyanin raamattuviitteet, jotka liittyvät kirjan kertomukseen. Kristityn vaellus on sekä mukaansatempaava seikkailuromaani että myös vakava kristillinen hartauskirja, joka sopii kaikenikäisille.

In contrast to Dante, Bunyan fills his allegory with real people, not just stereotypes - or even archetypes. Though his characters have names like Honest, Feeble-mind, and Ignorance, they come across as real people given a nickname. The names apply to some extent, of course, but not to the point of making caricatures out of the characters. This volume contains parts I and II of Pilgrims progress. The first part concerns the journey of a pilgrim named Christian, while the second describes the journey of his wife, Christiana. Both start from the City of Destruction and both encounter many of the same obstacles - the Slough of Despond, the Vanity Fair, the Castle Doubt - before reaching the gates of the Celestial City. Other than that, their journeys are rather different, for Christian travels on his own, with a bit of help here and there, and with one or another traveling companion, but his progress is almost entirely his own. Christiana, by contrast, travels as part of an ever growing company, who support one another and who are defended by one or two powerful champions.
