"The Memoir of Dr. Buchanan here presented to the christian public is that by Dr. Pearson, much abridged in parts which cannot be of permanent interest in this country; with the insertion, in the order of time, of the most valuable portions of Dr. Buchanan's "Christian Researches in Asia," published by himself, which Dr. Pearson felt constrained to omit. What is retained from Dr. Pearson is given in his own words; except that the narrative of Dr. Buchanan's life after his return to England is condensed by the American editor into one short chapter, with the addition of some concluding remarks; and, in a few instances, connecting sentences have been inserted. The division of the book into parts has been dropped, and the whole included in consecutive chapters. It is believed that every thing of permanent value in the Memoir by Pearson is retained, and that the additions from the "Researches in Asia" will render this volume more valuable than the original; and indeed, in relation to Eastern missions, one of the most instructive and useful works that have been written. -- page 3.

This electronic version has been made available under a Creative Commons (BY-NC-ND) open access license. This is a detailed study of the various ways in which London and India were imaginatively constructed by British observers during the nineteenth century. This process took place within a unified field of knowledge that brought together travel and evangelical accounts to exert a formative influence on the creation of London and India for the domestic reading public. Their distinct narratives, rhetoric and chronologies forged homologies between representations of the metropolitan poor and colonial subjects – those constituencies that were seen as the most threatening to imperial progress. Thus the poor and particular sections of the Indian population were inscribed within discourses of western civilization as regressive and inferior peoples. Over time these discourses increasingly promoted notions of overt and rigid racial hierarchies, of which a legacy still remains. Drawing upon cultural and intellectual history this comparative study seeks to rethink the location of the poor and India within the nineteenth-century imagination.
