"Bunyan in Our Time" brings together eight essays by New World Scholars as a celebration for the tercentenary of the death of the 17th century religious writer and contender for freedom of conscience, John Bunyan. The essays reflect various ways of interpreting John Bunyan and his writings. They reach back into Bunyan"s manipulations of the proverbs of his period and extend as far forward as the comparison between "The Pilgrim"s Progress" and Lewis"s "The Pilgrim"s Regress". Beyond the writings, Bunyan"s activities that proclaimed the struggle between religious convictions and governmental oppression will sound familiar to persons in the late 20th century who witness the clash between church and state in many forms.
