About this ebook
John Bunyan
John Bunyan nació en Elstow, Bedfordshire, Inglaterra, en 1628. Aprendió a leer y escribir en la escuela del pueblo y fue preparado para seguir el oficio de su padre como brasero cuando estalló la Guerra Civil inglesa en 1644 y fue reclutado en el ejército parlamentario. Su servicio militar lo puso en contacto con las tropas puritanas de Oliver Cromwell. A partir de 1648, Bunyan sufrió una crisis de fe religiosa que duró varios años. Se dirigió a la Iglesia No Conformista en Bedford para sostenerlo durante este período. Sus primeros escritos fueron ataques contra los cuáqueros. Luego, Carlos II fue restaurado al trono, y Bunyan fue arrestado por realizar servicios que no estaban de acuerdo con la iglesia de Inglaterra. Pasó doce años en la cárcel. Durante este tiempo, escribió su autobiografía, Gracia Abundante, en la que describió su lucha y crecimiento espiritual. Durante sus últimos años en prisión, Bunyan comenzó su obra más famosa, El progreso del peregrino, una historia alegórica en dos partes del personaje Cristiano y su viaje a la salvación. La Parte I se publicó en 1678 y la Parte II en 1684. La segunda parte trata sobre el viaje espiritual de la esposa y los hijos de Cristiano, ya que siguen sus pasos. Con sus elementos de la tradición del cuento popular, El progreso del peregrino se hizo popular de inmediato. Ya entrado el siglo XIX era un libro conocido por casi todos los lectores de Inglaterra y Nueva Inglaterra, segundo en importancia solo a la Biblia. Bunyan murió en Londres el 31 de agosto de 1688.
