Reginald Heber (1783-1826), second bishop of Calcutta, was
appointed to the role in 1823, and had for a long time been
interested in the Church of England's overseas missions. His
diocese in the subcontinent had been established less than a decade
before, in 1814, and included India, southern Africa and Australia.
Heber travelled extensively throughout, visiting remote Anglican
communities and later publishing journals about his travels. In
addition, he was well-known as a hymn-writer. Sermons Preached in
India, however, was published posthumously in 1829, and edited by
his widow, Amelia. This volume also illustrates Heber's zeal to
carry out his work across his diocese, the location of his sermons
range from Delhi to Dum Dum. Missionaries would have been a
significant part of his diocese, and these homilies reflect many of
the difficulties faced by Anglicans living in a place that had its
own strong religious beliefs.
