Viswanatha Satyanarayana (10 September 1895 – 18 October 1976) was born to Sobhanadri and Parvathi in the year 1895 at Nandamuru,(pin 521311) Krishna District, Andhra Pradesh. He was a Telugu writer of the 20th century. His works included poetry, novels, drama, short stories and speeches, covering a wide range of subjects such as analysis of history, philosophy, religion, sociology, political science, linguistics, psychology and consciousness studies, epistemology, aesthetics and spiritualism. He was a student of Chellapilla Venkata Sastry. Chellapilla was familiar to be known as Tirupati Venkata Kavulu duo, Diwakarla Tirupathi Sastry and Chellapilla Venkata Sastry. Viswanatha's style of poetry was classical in nature and his popular works include ''Ramayana Kalpa Vrukshamu'' (Ramayana the wish-granting divine tree), ''Kinnersani patalu'' (Mermaid songs) and ''Veyipadagalu'' (The Thousand Hoods). He was awarded the Jnanpith Award〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Jnanpith Laureates Official listings )〕 and Padma Bhushan in 1971. The parallel "free-verse" movement in easy prose of Telugu literature criticised him as a bigot who hung onto the strict rules of poetry such as ''Yati'', ''Prasa'' (rhyme) and Chandas (meter). However this only covers a part of the wide variety of literature he created. At the same time, there was no contemporary in Telugu literature who could match his depth of the subjects he covered and his mastery of literature. A book with his memories compiled has been released.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Book festival: stall showcasing works of ‘Kavi Samrat’ a highlight )〕 ==School of Thought== Viswanatha was a traditionally trained scholar in several subjects. He was a strong adherent of advaita,〔Kalpavruksha Rahasyamulu〕 though his learning and mastery extends to several other schools. 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「Viswanatha Satyanarayana」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
