More about the book

A.K. Ramanujan, a prominent figure in 20th-century Indian literature, is celebrated for his poetry, translations, and scholarly work. His translations of ancient Tamil and medieval Kannada poetry are regarded as classics. Known for his modernist approach, he published four poetry collections in English and left behind a wealth of unpublished writings, including journals and papers spanning five decades. After his death, these meticulously preserved documents were donated to the University of Chicago, awaiting discovery by a broader audience.
