Sinopsis

Christianity in Ceylon is a seminal work by Sir James Emerson Tennent that explores the introduction, establishment, and evolution of Christianity on the island of Ceylon (modern-day Sri Lanka). Spanning a vast historical timeline from the early mentions of Christianity in the 6th century to the influence of Portuguese, Dutch, British, and American missionaries, the book offers a richly detailed narrative based on personal observations, missionary reports, and historical documents. Tennent?s exploration is both an ethnographic and theological study, diving into the interactions between Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, and native customs. It remains an essential reference for students of religious history, colonial studies, and South Asian Christianity.
