AUTHOR
SUMMARY
This classic anthology of translations has long been out of print. Thepoems come from one of the earliest surviving texts of Tamil poetry, theKuruntokai, an anthology of love lyrics probably recorded during the first threecenturies AD. Seventy-six of these classical poems have here been given amodern language and form. In an effort at fidelity to the effect of the imagesand their placement in the original, Ramanujan has given a visual shape to thepoems by typographic devices.An essay on Tamil poetry explains its techniques and enriches the reader'spleasure in these quiet, controlled, yet dramatic poems.Ramanujan, A. K. is the author of 'Interior Landscape' with ISBN 9780195635010 and ISBN 0195635019.
