Abstract

The Sangam literature, which is rich in literature and is ancient, is imaginative and has a linguistic personality. In the Sangam literature, the short songs which received the epithet "Good" are rich in concept and imagination. In this article, the life of the Agam men of the Sangam age referred to in these verses has been explained in this article from an aesthetic point of view. The feeling of love is essential to Agam’s life, and the way in which this feeling manifests itself in both the man and the woman is enjoyable. The man and woman's love for each other, their ability to express it, and their separation are all expressed in conjunction with nature. A number of short poems that reveal the lives of the people of the Sangam age who lived in harmony with nature through their statements are illustrated, and the concept and scenes in those songs are explained.
