520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. Kuruntogai is a collection of 401 Classical Tamil love poems which date from around 2,000 years ago. They have a freshness and universality which is rare in 'ancient' classical literature and this translation attempts to reflect that quality. Rather than simply translating them, it endeavours to recreate them in modern, idiomatic English. The extensive notes include literal Tamil-English translations of all or part of every poem, identifications and descriptions of the flora and fauna of the Tamil landscape, explanations of cultural and historical references and notes on Classical Tamil grammar where it differs from Standard Literary Tamil.
