Description
The Tirukkural, composed by the legendary poet Tiruvalluvar, stands as one of the most revered works of Tamil literature and world philosophy. This hardcover edition by Gyan Publishing House features the complete text in Roman transliteration alongside English translation by V. R. Ramachandra Dikshitar.
Divided into three main sections—virtue (aram), wealth (porul), and love (kamam)—the Tirukkural presents timeless wisdom on ethics, governance, economics, and human relationships. Each of the 1330 couplets offers practical guidance for leading a virtuous and prosperous life, applicable across centuries and cultures.
This scholarly translation preserves the original meaning while making the text accessible to contemporary English readers and those learning Tamil through Roman script. The work has influenced philosophers, rulers, and thinkers throughout history, and remains relevant to modern moral and ethical discussions.
