Excerpt from A Study of the Sources of Bunyan's Allegories: With Special Reference to Deguileville's Pilgrimage of Man The question of Bunyan' s indebtedness to his predecessors in the field of allegory is not new. In his own time he was accused of having stolen his allegory, as we know from the vigorous denial of such charges which, under the title of An Advertisement to the Reader, he appended to the Holy War. Though Bunyan here declared that matter and manner too was all his own, ' the suggestions of possible prototypes have gone on multiplying, until now the list of books and poems cited has grown to considerable length.
