Palkuriki Somanatha
Palkuriki Somanatha was one of the most noted Telugu language writers of the 12th or 13th century. He was also an accomplished writer in the Kannada and Sanskrit languages and penned several classics in those languages.〔 He was a Shaiva (devotee of the Hindu god Shiva) by faith and a follower of the 12th century social reformer Basava and his writings were primarily intended to propagate this faith.〔Sahitya Akademi (1992), p. 4133〕 He was a well acclaimed Shaiva poet.
==Life==
Indication that he was not a Shaiva by birth comes from the fact that he mentions the names of his parents in his very first work, ''Basava Purana'', violating a general practice of Shaiva writers who do not mention their real parents but rather consider the god Shiva as the father and his concert Parvati as the mother.〔 However, the scholar Bandaru Tammayya has argued that he was born a ''Jangama'' (devotee of the god Shiva).〔Bandaru Tammayya in Sahitya Akademi (1992), p. 4133〕 The scholar Seshayya places him in the late 13th to early 14th century and proposes that the writer lived during the reign of Kakatiya king Prataparudra II, whereas the Kannada scholar R. Narasimhacharya dates his writings to the 12th century and claims Somanatha was patronised by Kakatiya king Prataparudra I (1140–1196).〔Seshayya in Sahitya Akademi (1992), p. 4133〕〔Narasimhacharya (1988), p. 20, p. 68〕 His place of birth is uncertain because there is a village by the name Palkuriki in the Warangal district of the Telangana state as well as in the Kannada speaking region (Karnataka).〔〔Shastri (1955), p. 362〕
