| Summary | "The Pilgrim's Progress" by John Bunyan is a religious allegory written in the late 17th century. The narrative chronicles the journey of a character named Christian as he seeks salvation and navigates the challenges of life, symbolized by his passage from the City of Destruction to the Celestial City. This work serves as a discourse on the Christian faith, presenting themes such as redemption, perseverance, and the struggle against sin. The opening of the story introduces us to Christian, who is depicted as a man in turmoil, burdened by the weight of sin and the fear of impending judgment. As he reads a book, presumably the Bible, he becomes increasingly distressed about his fate and confides in his family, who largely regard his concerns with disbelief. As Christian sets out on his pilgrimage, he encounters a character named Evangelist, who guides him towards the wicket gate, marking the beginning of his journey to seek salvation. This portion effectively sets the stage for Christian's struggles and the allegorical nature of his quest as he faces various temptations and obstacles along his path.
