Framed Print of The Social Science Congress at Sheffield: Sir Manockjee Cursetjee...on education in India, 1865. Creator: Unknown
education in India, 1865. View of...the meeting, on Friday, of the Educational Department, Mr. Thomas Chambers, M.P. presiding, when Sir Manockjee Cursetjee, a Parsee gentleman of Bombay, not less distinguished by his liberality and enlightenment than by his wealth and commercial position, made an interesting statement with regard to the improvement of female education in India, of which he has long been a zealous and influential promoter. He described the means by which, two years ago, an institution was opened at Bombay for the education of a limited number of daughters of respectable native families. He had previously tried the experiment in his own family, and it had proved successful. A strong prejudice, however, still subsisted in the country against female education; and, without the cooperation of their European brethren, it was impossible for enlightened natives to accomplish all those changes which they were desirous of seeing carried out. The speech of Sir Manockjee Cursetjee, which was fluently delivered, was listened to with attention, and appeared to excite general interest'. From Illustrated London News, 1865.
