Rent The Life and Death of Mr. Badman

Synopsis

The Life and Death of Mr Badman was published by John Bunyan in 1680, two years after the first edition of the first part of The Pilgrim's Progress. In the opening sentence of his preface he tells us it was intended by him as the counterpart or companion picture to the Allegory. But whatever his own intentions may have been, the public of his own time seem to have declined to accept the book in this capacity. Indeed, another writer, who signs himself T. S., undertook to complete Bunyan's Allegory for him, in a book in size and type closely resembling it, and entitled The Second Part of the Pilgrim's Progress exactly described under the Similitude of a Dream.
