Within the last half-century, early scholarly approaches and
analysis of John Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress have seen siginificant
advances in mandating and enabling a more contextualized view of
Bunyan's oeuvre. Utilizing this fresh examination of context, John
Bunyan's Imaginary Writings in Context explores Bunyan's writings
in a double context: his fictional works vis-a-vis his own
non-fictional writings, and his fictional writings in the context
of written materials by other authors - books, tracts, spiritual
biographies, and poems available to Bunyan. This volumepresents
these recent developments by blurring the boundaries between
fiction and non-fiction, between literature and history, and in the
case of Bunyan, between imaginative literatures in fiction and
theological writing. Moreover, this book aims to delineate the
imaginary world underlying Bunyan's fictional writings by viewing
Bunyan's own fictional works in tandem with his non-fiction
writings. Simultaneously it situates aspects of Bunyan's fiction in
the context of writings available to him, whether these be Holy
Scripture, religious tracts by other authors, or ballads and short
texts current in the wider culture of the time.
