Beskrivelse af Alexander Duff (1883)
Alexander Duff is a biography written by Thomas Smith in 1883 that chronicles the life of Scottish missionary Alexander Duff. Duff was born in 1806 and dedicated his life to spreading Christianity in India. The book follows his journey from his early years in Scotland, through his education at the University of Edinburgh, and his eventual arrival in India as a missionary. Duff's mission in India was to educate the people and promote the Christian faith. He established several schools and colleges that provided education to both boys and girls, which was a revolutionary concept at the time. The book details Duff's struggles and successes in India, including his clashes with the British East India Company and his efforts to promote religious tolerance and understanding between different faiths. The biography also explores Duff's personal life, including his marriage and family, and his deep commitment to his faith. Smith draws on a range of sources, including Duff's own writings and letters, to provide a comprehensive and engaging account of his life and work. Overall, Alexander Duff is a fascinating portrait of a pioneering missionary and educator who made a significant impact on the people of India and the history of Christianity. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Christian missions or the cultural and social history of India in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
