Download or read book An Introduction to the History of Tamil Literature written by M. Arunachalam and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-08-19 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thiru M. Arunachalam, author of this work is too well-known as an erudite Tamil Scholar with a prolific pen to need no introduction. His century-wise volumes on the history of Tamil Literature are comprehensive in view and corrective in certain respects to the earlier attempts by others. The present work under review is an Introduction to these volumes in quite a compressed form. This volume is foreworded by Dr. K. R. Srinivasa Iyengar who has aptly commended this work.This Introduction has 47 chapters of varied length, the longest having sixteen pages and the shortest having one and a half. The multiplicity of chapters necessitated by multiple angles of approach has consequently resulted in overlapping of the materials and views. But nevertheless, the chapters serve as useful reference heads.The first four chapters, 'The Land and its people', 'Tamil Language and Literature', 'The Tamil Sangham', and 'Mut Tamil' serve as a fleeting general introduction describing the social and literary milieu of the Tamils from the flowering of their civilization. It would have been better if the author had in his first chapter stretched his survey, however rapid up to the Present century, as he does under the other heads. This chapter as we find it relates only to the age of Cankam with reference to its social set-up.The chapters on Saiva Canon I & II, Vaishnava Canon I & II, Saiva literature, Vaishnava literature and Vedanta Writing are quite vivid and elaborate. His grasp and thoroughness in matters relating to these subjects are to be seen in these chapters.Some of the Chapters like Poetry of the Sangham Period I & II, The 18 Kilkkanakku, Ethical literature, the Commentaries and Minor Poems I & II are dealt with in a way generally not to be found in other histories of Tamil literature. His opinions with regard to the nomenclature of some of the works like Kilkanakku, etc. and with regard to the system in which the poems of Cankam period might have been compiled are convincing. His opinions regarding the nature of Tamil ethics.A. A. Manavalan

Book excerpt: At a time the Tamils have forgotten their glorious past, the hights of their achievements in political, social, cultural and civilization fields, when they have lost even their sense of self respect, this book apart from being a treasure of culture, I consider, is one that awakens them, reminds them and rekindles their interest to know about their past and implores them to create a greater feature. I fervently hope that the vision of the author is realized and all our wishes filfilled. I am sure that the sincere and enlightened work serve the purpose and the society. It has website effect scanning every minutes detail of the Tamil culture. We are sure when you come out you would be a scholar to be sought after. Hardbound

Download or read book Scenes from Tamil Classics written by Sellathamby Sriskandarajah and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010-01-04 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scenes from Tamil Classics is a book about Tamil poetry. Tamil is one of the very few living classical languages of the world and has a rich and copious literary, musical and religious tradition. This book is primarily intended for expatriate Tamils, particularly to the children of Tamil immigrants in Europe, Australia and North America who are in danger of becoming increasingly alienated from their cultural roots. The intention of the book is to create an awareness and a sense of belonging among those expatriate children who are caught up in an uncomfortable tension between the culture of their own family and ethnic community and the culture of the wider society around them. This book is an attempt to give a taste of Tamil literature through the medium of English. In the selected extracts, the author paints in the details of the story or the situation which the poet has left unsaid, and draws out the inferences and allusions lying implicit in the poem. He thus brings the scene to life, and prevents the eye of the reader from passing too swiftly and superficially over the text. Instead, he stimulates the reader to reflect on the action and the feelings expressed, and enables him or her to appreciate more fully the artistry of the poem. In addition to extracts from ancient and medieval Tamil classics, Scenes from Tamil Classics provides a wide-ranging survey of Tamil literature. This is a fresh and original book which leads the reader into a world which is many centuries and thousands of miles distant from our own. Beyond the particular readership mentioned above, there is much in these pages to give delight to anyone with an interest in literature and in the human condition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains Ramachandra Dikshitar’s 1930 study of the Tamils, “Origin and Spread of the Tamils”. Tamil people are a Dravidian ethnic group who speak Tamil as their mother tongue. Numbering around 77 million people that live in many different countries, the Tamils are one of the of the biggest and oldest ethno-linguistic cultural groups that exist without their own state. This fascinating and insightful study is highly recommended for those with an interest in the Tamil people, and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of related literature. Vishnampet R. Ramachandra Dikshitar (1896 - 1953), was a historian, Indologist and Dravidologist from the Indian state of Tamil Nadu. He was a professor of history and archaeology in the University of Madras and authored multiple text books on Indian history. Many vintage texts such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now, in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
