Description
About The Book: An Apology for Promoting Christianity in India by Claudius Buchanan (1766–1815) defends the efforts to introduce and expand Christianity in colonial India. As a Church of England chaplain and missionary advocate, Buchanan argues that Christian principles would morally uplift Indian society and complement British governance. His work reflects the era’s evangelical zeal and the belief in a civilizing mission through religion. It also sparked debate over cultural imposition, religious freedom, and the role of missionaries within the colonial framework.
