Abstract

Bharathiyar has carved out a unique personality for himself in the Tamil creative world. His literary platforms have expanded in various forms, such as poems, stories, essays, magazines, and translations. Bharathi's works basically reflect on three levels: language, nationality, and women. His works demonstrate how these three levels are intertwined and constructed. It also proposes key concepts of powerless politics, social order, and women's reform. Language is the primary identity of a society. Bharthi's work shows that he was actively involved in promoting the excellence of the Tamil language throughout the world. Bharathi's national work also focused on economic liberation, caste liberation, slavery liberation, etc. Bharathiyar is one of the foremost reformers who voiced support for women's education. Bharathi's work and contributions are the main reasons for women's freedom in education, career, and family development today. Bharathi's multifaceted works serve as a great guide for today's Tamil creators.
