About this Item

Language: English. About The Book : Rammohun Roy was truly an epoch-making man. No epoch in the history of a nation can be more fittingly named after a man than modern India after Raja Rammohun Roy; and no man has adjuster right to be called the prophet of an era than the Raja of the present epoch in India. Rammohun Roy was born at a momentous juncture in the history of India and was, under the providence of God, destined to mould the national life in all its bearings, as few have done in the history of the race. The political, social and religious life of New India has been permanently stamped with the personality of Rammohun Roy and his name will remain indissolubly associated with the history of modern India. At the time of Rammohun Roy's birth a dense cloud of darkness was brooding over the country. About The Editors : Sophia Dobson Collet (1822 1894) was a 19th-century English feminist freethinker.
