Here the author’s condemnation of the vices of his society is most strongly expressed. The Vanity Fair allegorically refers to the real world where people have lost the sense of honor, uprightness and conscience. In a word, they are spiritually lost. By making the truth-seeking pilgrims suffer at the hands of the people of Vanity Fair, the author also makes his readers conscious of the prevalent political and religious persecution of his time, the hard lot of the simple, honest people, their spiritual sufferings at a time of great changes, and their aspiration for a better life. Bunyan cherished a deep hatred of both the king and his government.

The Metaphysical Poets
Metaphysical is a school of poetry appeared about the beginning of the 17th century. John Donne was the founder.
The two pilgrims, Christian and Faithful, had arrived at a town where a fair called Vanity Fair was kept. At the fair, everything, such as “houses, lands, trades, places, honors, titles, countries, kingdoms, lusts, pleasures and delights” was sold as merchandize: and every kind of crime was committed. Christian and Faithful were asked to buy something on sale at the fair, but they refused to buy anything there, saying that they would “ buy the truth”. This made the people at the fair very angry and a great disorder followed. They were taken to the judges, who judged them to be madmen and sentenced them to be first beaten and them shut up in a cage to be displayed in public as a punishment for their offence.

《天 路 历 程》
It is said the world literature has three great allegories: Spenser’s The Faerie Queene, Dante’s The Devine Comedy and Bunyan’s The Pilgrim’s Progress . The story begins: “As I walked through the wilderness of this world I lighted on a certain place where there was a den and laid me down in that place to sleep; and as I sleep, I dreamed a dream.” It ends: “Then I saw that there was a way to hell even from the gates of heaven as well as from the city of Destruction. So I awoke, and behold it was a dream.”
