Meenakshi Sundaram Pillai or Mahavidhvan Meenakshisundaram Pillai(Tamil:மீனாட்சிசுந்தரம் பிள்ளை) is an eminent Tamil scholar and is the teacher of U. V. Swaminatha Iyer, a Tamil scholar and researcher who was instrumental in bringing many long-forgotten works of classical Tamil literature to light. ==Literary works== He begun his career as a Tamil teacher in Mayiladuthurai, he went on to train many students in the craft of Tamil liteature. Because of his poverty, he was compelled to ghost writing and wrote books like ''Kuchelopakyam'' and the ''Suta Samitha''. One of his first publications under his own name was ''Akhilanda Nayaki Pillai Tamil'', written in 1842. He is remembered for his contribution to Tamil studies as well as Saiva Agamas(Rules of ''Saivites''). The celebrated Tamil scholar U. V. Swaminatha Iyer, known for his discovery of the Sangam classics, became his student at the age of 17. Meenakshi Sundaram Pillai, who left behind him a treasure of Tamil palm leaf manuscripts, died in poverty in 1876.〔''Historical dictionary of the Tamils. '' P.190. Vijaya Ramaswamy〕 Along with the institution of Tamil literature came an increased specilization of roles. Whereas poetic and musical composition were often combined in the creation of dramatic and poetic works, the dual role of ''Kirthana''(musical text) composer and erudite poet was becoming unusual in the 19th century. U. V. Swaminatha Iyer reports the contempt of his teacher, Pillai, for poets who composed musical works; music was thought to be a distraction from the more important aspects of grammar, poetics and mastery of traditional commentaries.〔''Singing the classical, voicing the modern: the postcolonial politics of music in South India. ''P.154.Amanda J. Weidman〕
