The Saint’s Shadow: Gautam Khattar and the Letters of St. Francis Xavier

For many Goans, St. Francis Xavier is Goencho Saib—the Protector of Goa. But Gautam Khattar's rhetoric was based on a specific reading of history—one that claims the missionary's methods were anything but saintly.

To understand the roots of this anger, we have to go back to 1542. We have to look at the words of the Jesuits themselves. Specifically, the book The Life and Letters of St. Francis Xavier by Henry James Coleridge.
