About Peter Pope

Peter Pope (born ), also known in Latin as Petrus Papa, was an Indian Anglican translator, interpreter, and missionary, known for being the first South Asian to visit England, in addition to being the first Christianised one; he was also the first to publish any works in England. Despite his efforts, accompanied by those of Copland, to bring his tribe to the faith, they were said to have been relatively dismissive of it. Copland returned to England alone four years later.
