About the Book:- |
The Central Institute of Classical Tamil has undertaken the onerous task of getting forty-one ancient Tamil Classics translated into English and other western and Indian languages as these immortal works reflect the sweetness of Tamil, its strength, its uniqueness, its heritage, its richness and its grandeur. Now we are proud to launch the Kannada translations of Ettuttokai and Pattuppāţţu, ably done by a select band of scholars led by Thiru. R. Srinivasan is associated with the reputed Bangalore Tamil Sangam. The Kalittokai is one of the eight anthologies (Ettuttokai) consisting of 150 songs under the akam category, believed to have been composed by five poets as listed below: 1. Pālai 35 songs Pālaipāțiya Peruńkațuńkō 2. Kurinci 29 songs Kapilar 3. Marutam 35 songs Marutan llanākanār 4. Mullai 17 songs Nalluruttiran 5. Neytal 33 songs Nallantuvanār The songs noted for their sweet melody, realistic descriptions of natural scenery, apt metaphors and similes are in Kali metre. Each Kalippā has an introduction, a conclusion and a middle where the central idea is developed. All the seven phases of love including Kaikkilai and Peruntiņai are described in this unique volume. |
