The Book of the Bunyan Festival by W. H. Wylie Pdf
Excerpt from The Book of the Bunyan Festival: A Complete Record of the Proceedings at the Unveiling of the Statue Given by His Grace the Duke of Bedford, June 10, 1874 Having been asked to write a preface to this Memorial volume, it occurs to me that I can best keep clear of the various lines of thought pursued by others, and add to the general interest, by a little historical sketch which shall give the old story in the light of some recent researches, and with some little additions which circumstances have placed within my reach. The name of Bunyan as a surname of the living has almost died out from Bunyan's native county. I only re member to have met with it once or twice. Yet it is of considerable antiquity, and was at one time far from rare. A document now being edited by H. Gough, Esq., shows that one William Boynyon, of Stanbridge, in Leighton Buzzard, was a member of a guild or fraternity at Luton, in 1518. The name is found variously spelt. In the Church Registers of Elstow and Wootton, it is written thus, Bunnion or Bunion. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

How does a book become an international bestseller? What happens to it as it is translated into different languages, contexts, and societies? How is it changed by the intellectual environments it encounters? What does the transnational circulation mean for its reception back home? Exploring the international life of a particularly long-lived and widely traveled book, Isabel Hofmeyr follows The Pilgrim's Progress as it circulates through multiple contexts--and into some 200 languages--focusing on Africa, where 80 of the translations occurred. This feat of literary history is based on intensive research that criss-crossed among London, Georgia, Kingston, Bedford (John Bunyan's hometown), and much of sub-Saharan Africa. Finely written and unusually wide-ranging, it accounts for how The Pilgrim's Progress traveled abroad with the Protestant mission movement, was adapted and reworked by the societies into which it traveled, and, finally, how its circulation throughout the empire affected Bunyan's standing back in England. The result is a new intellectual approach to Bunyan--one that weaves together British, African, and Caribbean history with literary and translation studies and debates over African Christianity and mission. Even more important, this book is a rare example of a truly worldly study of "world literature"--and of the critical importance of translation, both linguistic and cultural.
