Beskrivelse af Henry Martyn, Saint And Scholar
Henry Martyn, Saint and Scholar: First Modern Missionary to the Mohammedans, 1781-1812 is a biography written by George Smith. The book chronicles the life and work of Henry Martyn, a British missionary who was one of the first to spread Christianity to the Muslim world. The book covers Martyn's early life, his education at Cambridge University, his ordination as an Anglican priest, and his decision to become a missionary. It also details his travels to India and Persia, where he spent many years learning Arabic and Persian and translating the Bible into those languages. The book describes Martyn's struggles with illness, loneliness, and cultural barriers as he worked to spread the gospel to Muslims. Despite these challenges, Martyn remained committed to his mission and is remembered as a pioneering figure in the history of Christian missions. The book draws on Martyn's own writings, as well as letters and other documents from the time period, to provide a detailed and engaging account of his life and work. Overall, Henry Martyn, Saint and Scholar is a fascinating and inspiring biography that sheds light on a little-known but important figure in the history of Christianity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
