ISBN-13: 978-1-4335-5864-1, ISBN: 1-4335-5864-5

"As before: before science and secularism undermined belief in Christianity; a reference to the religious doubt of the Victorian age. ...

"When we read a Christian classic, we experience something similar. A second way in which the Bible serves as a model stems from its literary nature. The Bible gives us a definition of a Christian classic.

80 Pages, Published 2014 by Crossway
ISBN-13: 978-1-4335-3466-9, ISBN: 1-4335-3466-5

"The comedy mainly resides in Bunyan's allegorical characters. Talkative is a comic type and a satiric portrait (satire as the ridicule of folly).

Bunyan multiplies the humor by making Talkative the son of Say-well and someone who lives on Prating Row (equivalent of “Chattering Street”). Bunyan's originality consists of putting this ..."
