Description

Explore the life of the Rev. James Long through this detailed historical study from Routledge. Part of the London Studies on South Asia series, this book examines the impact of one of the most significant Protestant missionaries in nineteenth-century India. Sent to Calcutta in 1840, Long dedicated his work to the interests of the oppressed Bengali population. This text covers his involvement in the indigo planting controversy of 1861, an event that led to his imprisonment. Readers will learn about his lasting legacy in modern India and his contributions to the development of Bengali vernacular education, literature, history, and sociology. It is a necessary read for those interested in the history of the Indian Subcontinent and the social movements of the era.
