Summary "Schwartz of Tanjore" by Jesse Page is a historical biography written in the early 20th century. The work focuses on the life of Christian Frederick Schwartz, a missionary who played a vital role in introducing Christianity in India during a time of significant cultural and religious challenge. Schwartz's unique character is highlighted, as he embodied a blend of spiritual fervor, ethical integrity, and a deep commitment to his missionary duties amidst the complexities of colonial India. At the start of the biography, the author presents a preface that outlines the historical context in which Schwartz operated, diving into the prevailing attitudes towards missions at the time. The narrative begins by discussing the roots of Christianity in India and takes the reader through the various individuals and movements that paved the way for Schwartz’s arrival. It touches on the challenges faced by early missionaries, including issues of language and cultural misunderstandings, while also illuminating Schwartz's steadfast dedication to his mission. The tone is reflective, considering Schwartz's contributions against the broader backdrop of missionary activity and the shifting landscape of Indian society in the 18th century.
