Description:
Social History of the Tamils: 1707-1947 by P. Subramanian is a comprehensive exploration of Tamil society and culture during the crucial period from 1707 to 1947. This book stands as the first concentrated effort to trace the social history of the Tamils, especially during the time when British colonialism had a profound impact on the region. Subramanian carefully examines various aspects of Tamil society, including the economy, religion, education, arts, and cultural expressions during this period.
The work delves into the transformation of Tamil society as it interacted with Western influences brought about by the British colonial rule. It also focuses on the social changes that occurred in Tamil Nadu during the rise and fall of British dominance in India. Drawing from a wide range of sources, such as archival records, Jesuit documents, Modi manuscripts, newspapers, biographies, travelogues, and even fictional works, the book provides an in-depth analysis of the shifts in Tamil society from 1707 to 1947.
This monumental work offers significant insights into the cultural, social, and historical evolution of the Tamil people, marking an invaluable contribution to the study of Tamil and Indian history.
