Book Description

About the Book A TREASURY OF ANCIENT TAMIL LEGENDS is a collection of stories told to generations of people who have listened with rapt attention and pondered over their timeless wisdom. Told to children of all ages these stories full of wit and wisdom are bound to make an unfailing appeal to humankind's eternal infancy. Kings and princes, hermits and harlots, poets and warriors come alive in these stories from an ancient age teeming with adventure and love, bejewelled with colour and extravagances. In fact, they take you back in time only to be entertained and enlightened. The author has the rare gift of retelling these old stories in a style that is at once enchanting and exciting. The restless splendour of the ancient Tamils is captured here for the first time in English. This book is for everyone, young or old, male or female, interested in ideas, literature and action.

About the Author Prof. P. Raja is a bilingual writer (Tamil and English) from Pondicherry. He has a little more than 5000 publications in not less than 350 magazines and newspapers, both in India and abroad. This eminent writer has to his credit 54 published books.

Foreword Vast indeed are the domains of legends and folklore. They range from the humdrum facts of the past to high altitudes of possibilities, and from the candid experiences of life to the dreams of fancy and visions of the sublime. The conscious and the subconscious mingle in them with an authority that defies question, reveries and asides assert their right of equality with the logical and the pragmatic.

We cannot think of our literature, be it ancient or medieval or modern or so called post-modern, be it classical or romantic, without the fortification of legends and folklore protecting them and guarding their growth.
