Seller's Description:
Very Good with no dust jacket. 094772205X. Crease to bottom-right corner of front cover. Slight wear and slight soiling to spine, cover and corners.; Rammohun Roy, known as the father of the Indian Renaissance, was a pivotal figure in early 19th century India. His efforts to reform Hindu society included challenges to traditional practices and an embrace of certain Christian values, which he believed could help modernize Indian society. The Teape Lectures, on which this book is based, were delivered at Cambridge and provide a scholarly examination of Roy's theological and social contributions, particularly focusing on how he integrated elements of Christian tradition into his Hindu reform activities. This analysis not only highlights Roy's historical significance but also sheds light on broader themes of cultural and religious exchange between East and West. The book is recognized for its detailed research and insightful interpretations of Rammohun Roy's engagements with Christian missionaries and his criticisms and adaptations of Christian doctrines.; Octavo (standard book size); xii, 181 pages.
