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

The Tamils have an unbroken history of more than two thousand years. Tamil, the language they speak, is one of the oldest living languages in the world. The only people comparable to the Tamils in terms of their hoary past and vibrant present would be the Jews with one marked difference. The Tamils have always had their homeland 'Tamilaham' (alternately pronounced and spelt 'Tamizhaham') known today as Tamil Nadu which to them represents their mother and is revered by them as 'Tamizh Tai' literally ‘Tamil Mother’. This is in striking contrast to the Jews who have been through a long and arduous struggle to gain their homeland, a deeply contested site to this day with Hebrewisation of Israel being a key marker of Jewish identity in the region. Tamils, by contrast have a clear numerical majority in the region that now comprises Tamil Nadu and the language unites rather than divides adherents of different faiths. The second edition of Historical Dictionary of the Tamils contains a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 600 cross-referenced entries on important personalities, politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about the Tamils.

A bible theological didactic is not principally reduced to learning and teaching Bible alone but rather extended to understanding and interpreting Bible in one's own religious and pedagogical context. Bible didactic, moreover, does not circumscribe itself only to biblical knowledge in virtue of deducing some abstract and moral principles, but it rather prospects to strengthen and reconstruct one's identity within the choices offered by culture and context. This book aims to engage in an intercultural interpretation of the parables and the miracles of Jesus by dialoging with the culture of Tamils. This comparative study subsequently proposes an alternative synchronic hermeneutic in biblical didactics replacing a deep-seated diachronic model in Tamil land. It also develops a model of sync-culturation superseding fossilised model of inculturation. This book capitalises Tamils' texts and narratives of masses reflected in the archives of Tamil literatures and legends in the process of theologisation. Bearing on the aesthetics of parables and miracles and contextual reading of them, this study brings forward 'the world in front of the text' leaving behind the conventional exegesis of 'the world behind the text'.

ORIGIN AND SPREAD OF THE TAMILS A COURSE OF TWO LECTURES DELIVERED UNDER THE SANKARA-PARVATI ENDOWMENT, UNIVERSITY OF MADRAS BY V. R. RAMACHANDRA DIKSHITAR, M. A., University of Madras N08670 THE ADYAR LIBRARY 1947 Price Rs. 3-8-0 Printed by C. Subbarayudu, at the Vasanta Press, The Theosophical Society, Adyar, Madras P. I. C. No. 855-5-1947. PREFACE THE following pages represent a course of lectures delivered under the terms of the Sankara-Parvati En dowment, University of Madras, on the 29th and 30th of November 1940. An endeavour has been made in these lectures to examine the prevalent opinion held by scholars, both Western and Indian, on the origin of the Dravidians and their culture, and it is shown that the Tamils were the original inhabitants of the land, who had evolved an independent culture of their own which is generally known as Dravidian. These Tamils have handed down their culture to the succeeding generations in the East as well as in ttye West. Thus their contribution in the ancient and the modern times is something original, arresting and impressive. The Notes 1 appended to these lectures may enable the readers to form a judg ment on the conclusions reached by the author. I have to thank the Syndicate of the University of Madras for inviting me to deliver these lectures and permitting me to print them. I am grateful to Dr. G. Srinivasa Murti, B. A., B. L., M. B. C. M., Vaidyaratna, Captain, Honorary Director of the Adyar Library for having generously included VI this book in the Adyar Library Series. My thanks are also due to Sri Rao Bahadur K. V. Rangaswami Aiyangar for having read through the typescript of the lectures and Dewan Bahadur C. S. Srinivasa Chari forhaving helped me in the preparation of the Notes. 7 I also record my thanks to Mr. A. N. Krishna Aiyangar of the Adyar Library for pushing the work through the press by correcting the proofs and furnishing the book with an Index. The neat and expeditious printing of the work by the Vasanta Press has placed me under great obligation to the Manager, Mr. C. Subbarayudu. Madras V. R.

According to the geologist the antiquity of South India and Ceylon goes to the earliest Geological times. From Palaeozoic times there was the continent of Gondwana extending from Australia through Peninsular India and South Africa on to South America. At the close of the Mesozoic era this continent of Gondwana land broke up large areas went under the ocean. Australia, India. South Africa and South America became separ ated. But it is believed that India and Africa were still connected by an isthmus bridge, and to this the name Lemuria has been given. In the Jurassic epoch the eastward extension of the Indian Peninsula sank beneath the sea and gave rise to the Bay of Bengal. 1 Towards the end of the last Glacial period the sea level which was low, rose again with the melting of ice and resulted in extensive reef formation. It was during this period again the large area of dry land including Sumatra, Java and Borneo became eroded and pene planed, and when the sea rose, thepeneplaned area 1 See footnotes at end of the lectures. 2 ORIGIN AND SPREAD OF THE TAMILS became drowned, thus separating various islands. This geological action is explained as the occurrence of a great deluge in the Vedic, Epic and Puragic works, Manu who survived this catastrophe became the father of mankind. According to the account in the Bkagavata Pur tia, a part of the Dravida desa which centred the Malaya Hill survived this deluge. It is said that a fish who is regarded as the first avatar of Tirumal Sans...

Hitherto, the academic study of Indian cinema has focused primarily on Bollywood, despite the fact that the Tamil film industry, based in southern India, has overtaken Bollywood in terms of annual output. This book examines critically the cultural and cinematic representations in Tamil cinema. It outlines its history and distinctive characteristics, and proceeds to consider a number of important themes such as gender, religion, class, caste, fandom, cinematic genre, the politics of identity and diaspora. Throughout, the book cogently links the analysis to wider social, political and cultural phenomena in Tamil and Indian society. Overall, it is an exciting and original contribution to an under-studied field, also facilitating a fresh consideration of the existing body of scholarship on Indian cinema.
