A Sketch Of The Life Of Reverend Joseph Hardy Neesima: President Of Doshisha University, Kyoto (1894) is a biographical work written by Jerome Dean Davis. The book chronicles the life of Reverend Joseph Hardy Neesima, a prominent figure in the history of Japanese Christianity and education. Neesima was born in Japan in 1843, during a time when Christianity was banned in the country. Despite this, he became interested in the religion and eventually converted to Christianity. Neesima went on to study in the United States, where he received an education and became ordained as a minister. He returned to Japan and founded Doshisha University in Kyoto, which became one of the most influential Christian universities in the country. The book provides a detailed account of Neesima’s life, including his struggles with discrimination and his efforts to promote Christianity and education in Japan. It also explores the cultural and historical context in which Neesima lived, shedding light on the challenges and opportunities he faced as a pioneer in Japanese Christianity and education. Overall, A Sketch Of The Life Of Reverend Joseph Hardy Neesima is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Japan, Christianity, and education.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
