Abstract

Man lives in a certain living environment in which he co-exists, contradicts, has conflicts, and is harmonious as a member of society. He produces literature as an expression of the state of consciousness that is due to the practices of life. It is associated with the life of mankind at all three levels of its origin, meaning, and use. The people of the Sangam age considered the life of this world very much. The goal was to live happily in this world. The basis of their life was that they should live with morality, wealth, and enjoyment. Domesticity is the result of the gradual development of human society at every stage, and the human race, which lived in the forests and mountains, began to live an organized life of its own.
