Le pélerinage d’un nommé Chrétien : écrit sous l’allégorie d’un songe

by John Bunyan (1628-1688),
translated by Robert Estienne (1723-1794).

An English version is available: The Pilgrim’s Progress.

« Le pélerinage d’un nommé Chrétien » est un roman allégorique de John Bunyan, publié en 1678. L’auteur rédigea cet ouvrage en 1675, alors qu’il était emprisonné pour avoir violé le Conventicle Act, qui punissait les personnes coupables d’avoir organisé des services religieux non autorisés et sans supervision de l’Église anglicane.

Le récit rapporte les aventures de Chrétien, un homme ordinaire tâchant de se frayer un chemin depuis la “Cité de la destruction” jusqu’à la “Cité céleste” de Sion.

“The Pilgrim’s Progress from This World to That Which Is to Come” by John Bunyan (published February, 1678) is a Christian allegory. It is regarded as one of the most significant works of English literature, has been translated into more than 200 languages, and has never been out of print.

The allegory tells of Christian, an everyman character, who makes his way from the “City of Destruction” (Earth) to the “Celestial City” (Heaven) of Zion.
