Description

Indira Parthasarathy's Tamil play 'Ramanujar' was awarded the Saraswati Samman by the K.K.

Birla Foundation in 1999 for promoting an understanding of the contemporary relevance of the renowned Vaishnava acharya of medieval India.

The English translation by T. Sriraman and the accompanying critical apparatus by C.T.

Indra make the play accessible to a wider audience for the first time.

The book presents the saint not only as an exponent of the Visishtaadvaidicphilosophy, but even more strikingly as a radical social reformer with an inclusive vision.

The Epilogue, a playlet included in the present edition, presents an imaginary meeting of the aged renunciant with his long-separated wife.

The searching questions she poses make the savant reflect upon and evaluatehimself, his past, and the impact he has made on society.
