சங்க காலத்தில் போரும் வாழ்வும் நூல் அறிமுகம் ஆங்கிலத்தில். War and life during the Sangam period [By Dr. Jawahar Premalatha, Associate Professor Govt. Arts and Science College [Autonomous] Salem-7

(Translated into English: Vaiyavan] _____________________________________________________ Who wants war? Does the world like those who love and support it? In fact, no one with a good heart would want a war that kills people. Bharathidasan said, "Let us uproot the evil warring world." The result of the war was nothing but devastation. The welfare of the people will be neglected. The amount of mandavar will increase. Those who have lost organs cannot be counted. The future struggle of the children who have lost their fathers, the bereaved women who have lost their husbands, the elderly who have lost their sons and the disabled will be mourned everywhere. The result of this war is nothing but the destruction of conscience and the destruction of the people. Although it is a book on the Purananuru war, which is the historical repository of the Tamils, it is also an excellent book. Although the book tells of the wars, heroism, generosity, and hospitality of the ancients, it does say that there should be no war that contributes to social peace and that affects the welfare of the people. During the Sangam period, the youth, who were fed up with the obligation of ‘throwing stones and moving shifts to the bulls’, waited for the war to come. They were beating to see the blood of the enemy. They have gone to the battlefield and lived with the feeling that the day when they fall heroically and fall by the sword, bow and arrow are useful days and all other days are useless useless days. This is what Thiruvalluvar says in the verse, "Take the day that keeps everything slippery on the day when it does not fall." The war veterans went to war only after the enemy had said viciously, "If I fail to do this, this will happen." Sangam Tamil Maravars are considered to be qualified to complete what is considered. Women are not heroes either. A woman, who lost her father and husband in the ensuing battle, hears the roar of war on the third day and sends her son, who was playing, with a small whip on his head, to go to war. Seeing this, the female poet Okkur Masathiyar marvels at the heroism of the Ammarakkudi woman, saying, ‘Closer and closer to each other New World Nature Page-70) In the same book that supports war, voices say that war is not necessary, that the world is the nature of opposing, attacking and retaliating against each other. Although man is convinced that he originated from the beast, questions and voices calling out to the kings to consider whether it is appropriate to seek revenge, slaughter, and massacre in the name of heroism are loud and clear. Tamils have repeatedly fought among themselves for a variety of reasons, in a time when poets like Computer Bloom, who brought all the people of the world under one roof and celebrated everyone as relatives, said, "Everybody listens everywhere." Were the poets simply joking that the kings were massacring people in the name of war and flying the welfare of the people in the air for the sake of manna? No. They have tried to unite the kings as much as they can regardless of their lives. The songs of the Sangam poets, while seemingly praising the war on the one hand, have a lot of style in it as well as expressing the tragedies caused by the war as its content. They also had the courage and expertise to meet the kings at the right time and advise them to give up the war. The kings, in spite of all their power, arrogance, creativity, selfishness and efforts, have valued the voice of the witnesses and maintained their sovereignty. The Sangam kings considered the poets to be superior to themselves. Learned attestors were highly praised. They understand the vitality in their words, realize their mistakes and act with generosity. Adiyaman Nedumaan Anji has given the long-live life giving gooseberry which was presented to him; offer it to Avvaiyaar for the special reason of these people who are concerned about the welfare of the people [Continued]
