'Kavithendral' T.K. Ramanuja Kavirajar B.A.,B.L. (1905–1985) was a Tamil poet, Gandhian, playwright〔()〕 lawyer and humanitarian. This Indian writer had mastery in both English and Tamil. He wrote 14 books in Tamil and five in English. He is known for his voluminous creations, chaste language and poetic skills. He followed the principles of Mahatma Gandhi to the word and practised truthfulness. Even though he has written many books, his magnum opus is considered to be 'Mahatma Gandhi Kaaviyam', an epic on the life of Mahatma Gandhi penned in 12285 verses. This massive creation along with his other devotional works earned him the 'Kavithendral' award from the Nammakkal Kavingar award Committee. Kavirajar, as he is fondly called, went on to translate this work in English as 'Bharath reborn'. He led a simple and pious life and died at the age of 80. ==Early life== T.K. Ramanuja Kavirajar was born in Tirunelveli on 28 December 1905 to Kallapiran and Arasalwar. He started writing poems when he was around twelve years of age. He took to literature as fish to water and was proficient in both English and Tamil. It has been noted that he was capable of writing commentaries on the works of Shakespeare, at around the same time. His mother died early and he was adopted by his maternal uncle. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「TK Ramanuja Kavirajar」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
