Bharathi an Idealist

Abstract

The beginning of 19^th century was a time of scientific and technological development and the development of education for a particular community. Bharathi, who celebrated international politics had phrased “Aagavendru ezhunthathu paaryugap puratchi” (Translation: O! See the glorifying revolution) about the Russian Revolution. Bharathi is also immersed in the idealism of taking the natural phenomenon to the divine level without clarifying it. It can be seen in his writings about myths in general. We can also observe several differences among his poems and prose. He had incorporated lesser vernacular words like Sanskrit in his prose in comparison to his poems. This is also one of the evidents to outlay that he had given more priority to the concept in particular. To define Bharathi as an idealist, there are several grounded concepts have clinched. For say, the political contexts, social contexts, the attraction towards the feudalist society, searching answers within himself and with the divine, experiences with his family and the knowledge which had driven from his life experiments were the main concepts of his writings rather than the scientific explanations. With this notion the present research article has aimed to limelight his idealism in particular.
