Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. The book is in two parts dealing with the sacred hymns of the Alvars and Nayanmar; rooted in the Vedas, the Itihasas, the Gita and the Sahasranamas of Visnu and Siva. The first part presents the Roman transcription and English translation of the holiest of the hymns, the Tiruppavai and Tir…uvempavai. The second part is on "Morphological Riddles and Mythological Setting" of the Alvars hymns, and historical reflections on the 'Divyadesas" (Sacred Geography) of Visnuism in the Kaviri delta. The book includes an historical introduction on the bhakti cult. Rooted in the 'Bhagavata' or Vrsni-vira worship, the bhakti adumbrated by the Alvars and the Nayanmar (6th-9th century CE) had a tremendous impact over the course liturgical literature, temple building and the temple arts, sculpture and painting through the ages in South and Southeast Asia. Fourth and fifth chapters elaborately deal with the Tamil Veda, the 'Nalayiram' in the context of the ideas aired in second and third chapters. The annexures on Visnusahasranama and Sivasahasranama pinpoint their art historical relevance.

Monuments of the early medieval period all over South India was visited and the literature in Tamil and Sanskrit consulted. Being the first in a series of four volumes it has a chapter on religion and political background. The results of the monuments surveyed in the field and presented in the third chapter under the subheads Upper Deccan Lower Deccan and Far South. However the most important part of the monograph is the investigation of Tamil sources that is a much neglected aspect in Indian art historical research. In the present volume the Tamil quota of thought embodied in the Nalayiram is examined. There are two annexure of which one was a paper presented in the Banares Hindu University. The other is an analysis of the Vaisnava divyaksetras as listed in the Nalayiram. In volume II the first chapter presents an examination of the sources in Tamil literature especially the hymns of the bhakti savants the Nayanmar particularly the Tevaram. There are not less than 8000 hymns under vast corpus the examination of which has inspired western scholars (e.g. Ellen Goldberg of the Queen's University Ontario) to pay attention to the Tamil sources in the investigation of an Indian iconographic theme such as Ardhanarisvara. The II IV chapters examine the Saiva iconographical themes as they are present in the Upper Deccan Lower Deccan and far south. The other chapters attempt an analytical study of the distribution pattern of the iconographical themes and their aesthetic value. A recent article published in the Acta Orientalia deals with the origin and distribution pattern of Lingodbhavamurti basing on the methodology followed in the present monograph. In volume III the first chapter presents an account of sources in both Tamil and Sanskrit. The Tamil sources examined are those of the Cankam classics and the pre Pallava Cilappatikaram and Manimekalai. In addition to the Devimahatmyam some liturgical works (e.g. Lalitasahasranama) and the Mattavilasaprahasana are examined. The results of these sou.
