Focuses on the life of leading monk and educator Hikkaduve Sumangala (1827-1911) to examine Buddhist life under foreign rule. This work reveals that during Sri Lanka's crucial decades of deepening colonial control and modernization, there was a surprising stability in the religious activities of Hikkaduve and the Buddhists among whom he worked.
