| Summary: | John Bunyan’s Book for Boys and Girls reflects a pre-Piagetian attempt to connect the temporal and spiritual in the life of the child. It is argued that this work functions as mediated symbolism in a form similar to Solomonic wisdom with its regulated natural theology. Bunyan’s work challenges some contemporary assumptions of formation and child theology. The article concludes with a call to reclaim a holistic vision of life and faith within child pedagogies. |
