Vidyasagar and the Emergent Bengal Renaissance- Part II:
This is part II of a 2-part article by me on the seminal work by Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar (ICV; 1820-1891) in founding, establishing and propagating education in Bengal and India, especially the education of women. ICV was a leading reformist figure at the front end of the 19th century Bengal Renaissance, and set an example of character, integrity, service and sacrifice unmatched to this day.
