Ritual and Mythological Sources of the Early Tamil Poetry
This volume focuses on the origin of the early Tamil poetical canon, which constitutes a set of specific subjects, images, principles of arrangement of basic poetical themes which are called tiṇai. The author proceeds from the idea of a Russian scholar O. Freidenberg that literary forms ‘originate from anti-literary material rather than their own archetypes’. An outline of mythological concepts, prevalent in ancient Tamil culture, is presented, alongside main mythological figures - Murukaṉ, Māl, Cūr, Koṟṟavai, Vaḷḷi. A controversial notion of aṉanku, especially in its aspect of an inner female energy, is analyzed. In addition, the author explores the panegyric art of the Tamil kings’ singers, describing such singers and performers while discussing the idea of ritual character. The elements of five canonical tiṇai-themes of the akam poetry are examined, where the use of ethnological data suggests that the themes are based on some behaviour patterns which are meant to ensure a reliable control over the female energy. Finally, the text raises the problem of earlier poetic forms that consolidated the tiṇai system.

This book Greatest Tamil Book Tirukkural & Oldest Language Sanskrit! contains over thirty articles on Tirukkural of Tiruvalluvar, the greatest poet of Tamil speaking world and the oldest language Sanskrit. These articles appeared in my two blogs over the period of 13 years. Apart from Tirukkural, there are articles touching Bharati, the greatest Tamil poet of modern age and Bhartruhari, author of Nitia Sataka. Sanskrit and Prakrit have lot of interesting books such as NitiSataka of Bhartuhari and Gatha Sapta Sati. Since this is the third book dealing with Tamil and Sanskrit matters inside India, I have included the contents of my previous two books at the end. If you look at the contents of all the three books you will get a full picture of the marvellous productions in these two languages. Outside India, we see Sanskrit Inscriptions in Turkey (Bogazkoi) dated around 1400 BCE and Dasaratha Letters in Egypt. And we have over 850 Sanskrit inscriptions in South East Asian countries.
