Tamilil Yappilakkanam

During its inception, Tamil literature was all about poetry. The grammar for it was called 'Yappu Ilakkanam'. This book traces the history of Tamil Yappu Ilakkanam. After Tamil's oldest grammar handbook Tholkappiyam, Yapparungalakaarikai was the next one. With that as his touching stone, Manikandan evaluates all the books written on the subject. This book's value lies on the comprehensive research undertaken by Manikandan, and it indispensable for new learners and experts alike.
