About this film
LibriVox recording of The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner by James Hogg. Read in English by Claude Stewart The author calls this a religious parable and it is called an allegory in the book itself. A young, 18th century Scottish boy is converted to strict Calvinist theology, strives for assurance of his salvation as an elect person, eventually confirmed for him by his hyper-strict, hyper-fundamentalist pastor and mentor. Assured that no sin can affect his salvation and election, he comes under the influence of a strange, manipulative, controlling presence (whom we come to recognize as Satan.) - Summary by Dean McIntyre For further information, including links to online text, reader information, RSS feeds, CD cover or other formats (if available), please go to the LibriVox catalog page for this recording.
