Abstract

Sangam literature is a time mirror that reflects life events in languages ​​in which the heroism and generosity of four hundred kings have been described. From time immemorial, the Guru has been revered as a deity after his mother and father as the Guru's deity. The idea that only the Guru can heal the family, the student, and the country has been around. In Sanskrit literature, poets had the right to rebuke the king and to give him loving advice to make the country prosperous for the good of a king. In the late nineteenth century, poets primarily portrayed the heroism and generosity of kings through their songs. Not only male poets but also female poets excelled in this. Songs sung by individual poets All the songs in this book are sung about public justice without being sung about anyone There are hundreds of poets who mention the names of poets but also mention the names of kings.
