Vivekodayam
''Vivekodayam'' ('Dawn of wisdom') is a Malayalam literary journal established in 1904 to serve as a voice of the underprivileged communities in the Indian state of Kerala (particularly the Ezhavas who were regarded as untouchables). It was founded by Kumaran Asan, a poet, social reformer, disciple of Narayana Guru and founder-secretary of the associated SNDP Yogam, who was inspired by the teachings of Swami Vivekananda (The journal name was a tribute to him.)
== History ==
Asan served as the founding editor of ''Vivekodayam'', which published its first monthly issue in April, 1904 and it soon became the leading literary journal in Kerala. Under Asan's editorship, ''Vivekodayam'' primarily served as a voice for the social reform message of SNDP Yogam. At the same time, it covered the literary, political, and social themes and published original literary works, literary criticism, informative writings, and inspirational essays. Its fierce advocacy of the interests of the Ezhava community led to it being popularly referred to as the ''Ezhava Gazette''. Asan continued as the editor of Vivekodayam till 1919, when he resigned shortly after his marriage.
After several years of dormancy, the journal was revived by C.R. Kesavan Vaidyar. ''Vivekodayam'' is currently published quarterly by the Kumaran Asan National Institute of Culture (KANIC), which was founded in 1958 to preserve the writings and memory of Kumaran Asan.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://kanic.kerala.gov.in/publications.htm )〕
