Description

About The Book: Promotion of Learning in India by Early European Settlers (Up to About 1800 A.D.) by Narendra Nath Law explores the role of European settlers—primarily the Portuguese, Dutch, French, and British—in advancing education in India before the 19th century. The book examines missionary efforts, the establishment of schools and printing presses, and the translation of Indian texts into European languages. It highlights contributions by figures like Jesuit scholars, early British administrators, and Orientalists in preserving and disseminating Indian knowledge. Law presents a nuanced view, acknowledging both the educational advancements and the colonial motives behind these efforts, making it a valuable historical study.
