Summary:The parallel session focused on 'Allegory, Imagery, and Reading', and saw papers from Michael Arbino (Kent State University) on the implication of Bunyan's interesting comment on Henry VIII's 'cast[ing] down of Antichristian worship'; Richard Angelo Bergen (University of British Columbia) on Bunyan's potential engagement with the Memory Arts; and Revd Allan Wilcox on Blake's illustrations to The Pilgrim's Progress. The parallel session saw Andy Draycott (Biola University), Bob Owens (The Open University), Neil Keeble (Stirling University), and Vera Camden (Kent State University), participate in a roundtable on editing Bunyan and other early modern texts. [...]the Society conferred upon John Coffey Honorary Lifetime Membership of the IJBS, following the unanimous acceptance of his nomination for services to the scholarship of Protestant Dissent.
