This book showcases the vibrant afterlife of the foundational English author John Bunyan in book illustrations, digital reworkings, graphic novel, portraiture, shieldry, staged performance, stained glass, and statuary.
This book advances the conversation about the presence, aesthetic appropriation, and re-interpretation of the foundational English author John Bunyan (1628-1688), whose works and legend have had a vibrant afterlife in visual art.
Focusing on the global reach of Bunyan''s works and legend through multiple media and cultural adaptations provides a unique opportunity to discover the varied and generative influence of Bunyan on cultures past and present, promoting a more diverse appreciation of Bunyan''s unparalleled reach. The contributors also foster opportunities to discuss the role of intermediality in contemporary re-appropriations of early modern literature in the context of globalization, as well as a critical exploration of Bunyanic presence in global contemporary art via intertextual and intermedial relations.
