The Women of India and Christian Work in the Zenana is a book written by Mary Weitbrecht and was first published in 1875. The book focuses on the experiences of women in India and the efforts of Christian missionaries to improve their lives. It explores the cultural and social barriers that women faced in India during the 19th century, such as the practice of purdah and the lack of education and opportunities. Weitbrecht, who was a missionary herself, provides a detailed account of the work that Christian missionaries did in the Zenana, which refers to the private quarters of women in Indian households. She describes the challenges and successes of their efforts to reach out to women and bring them into the Christian faith. The book also includes personal stories of Indian women who were impacted by the work of the missionaries, as well as reflections on the broader social and political context of India at the time. Weitbrecht's writing is both informative and engaging, providing readers with a unique insight into the experiences of women in India during the 19th century, and the role of Christian missionaries in promoting social change. Overall, The Women of India and Christian Work in the Zenana is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the complex issues of gender, religion, and culture in India during the colonial period. It remains a relevant and insightful read for anyone interested in the history of India, women's studies, and the role of religion in social change.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
