Om denne boken
"De Heilige Oorlog, gevoerd door Koning Elschaddai tegen Diábolus" by John Bunyan is a novel published in 1682. This early modern allegory tells the story of Mansoul, a perfect town whose citizens are persuaded by the charismatic Diabolus to rebel against their rightful ruler, Shaddai. As Diabolus establishes his reign, Shaddai sends his son Emmanuel to wage war and reclaim the fallen city. Through battles at gates named for human senses and struggles between personified virtues and vices, the story unfolds as an epic spiritual conflict.
