The Life and Death of Mr Badman

The Life and Death of Mr. Badman: An Analysis of a Wicked Man's Life, as a Warning For Others, Presented to the World in a Familiar Dialogue Between Mr. Wiseman and Mr. Attentive is a 1680 fiction book by the English nonconformist preacher John Bunyan. It was designed as a companion to The Pilgrim's Progress and was published by Nathaniel Ponder. The two characters have a dialogue about sin and redemption over the course of a long day.

The scholar James Blanton Warey described the work as an English precursor to the novel, especially the picaresque novel. The work depicts "Badman" as a pseudonym for a real man who is dead. He died without honour, and his family and offspring do not mourn his death. He did not merit a memorial, and he failed to earn any badges and scutcheons.
