Two works by Baptist minister and essayist John Foster (1770-1843); the first, originally published in 1820, urges the necessity of a national system of education and the second, ‘A Discourse on the Propagation of Christianity in India’ was derived from an address delivered to a missionary society in 1818. Britannica (11th ed) reveals that Foster was a product of a ‘gloomy and sombre’ upbringing.
