Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book follows the life of Reginald Heber, a 19th-century English clergyman widely regarded as one of the most distinguished prelates of his era. It charts his charitable work, including the establishment of a record-breaking number of schools in his parish, and his contributions to the Church of England through his work as Bishop of Calcutta, where he traveled extensively under arduous conditions to establish and encourage Christian communities. The book explores theological and literary themes, examining Heber's passion and zeal for Christianity that informed not only his life's work but also his literary output. Included are discussions on his poetry and hymns, renowned for their eloquence and accurate depiction of the Holy Land, as well as his scholarly study on the nature of divine comfort. The author presents Heber as a complex and multifaceted figure whose life and work left a significant mark on the Christian church, particularly in India.
