Light. HTML version by Al Haines "The Pilgrim's Progress from this world to that which is to come" by John Bunyan is an allegorical novel written in the late 17th century. The narrative follows the journey of a character named Christian, who represents everyman, as he embarks on a spiritual quest from the "City of Destruction" to the "Celestial City," seeking salvation and enlightenment through trials and tribulations. The opening of the work presents a poignant scene where Christian is depicted bearing a heavy burden and grappling with existential despair. After reading a troubling book that reveals his doomed state, he becomes increasingly distressed and ultimately expresses his helplessness with a cry for salvation. Christian's path soon intersects with the character Evangelist, who directs him to the wicket gate as a means to escape his dire fate. His journey is marked by the temptation to give in to worldly counsels and the folly of straying from his divine purpose, underscoring themes of faith, redemption, and the challenges faced on the path to spiritual truth.
