International Encyclopaedia of Indian Literature: Telugu (Volume V)

 
Ganga Ram Garg (Author)
Synopsis Being Volume V of the Series: International Encyclopaedia of Indian Literature (Vol. I dealing with the Literatures of Sanskirt, Pali, Prakrit & Apabhramsa; 1987; volumes II, III and IV covering Tamil, Assamese, Kannada literatures respectively; 1987), the present Telugu work offers articles on all important poets, dramatists, fiction writers, essayists and their important works from the earliest days to the present times. The entries are arranged alphabetically. Generally articles on Indian writers go with their Christian names, but there are cross-references under their surnames. This would enable one to locate the writers easily. The articles have been compiled in consultation with the late Dr. G.V. Sitapati, an eminent literary historian and the author of History of Telugu Literature (Sahitya Akademi, New Delhi) and Dr. B. Radhakrishna, Deputy Director Telugu Akademi, Hyderabad, author of several works. Dr. Ganga Ram Gar, the Editor of International Encyclopaedia of Indian Literature has prepared the Volume. Dr. Radhakrishna has gone through the entire script and has made changes and corrections, which have greatly improved this volume. For non-Telugu readers and for those, who want to have a bird’s eye-view of Telugu literature he has provided a Survey. The first work of its kind in English about Telugu literature. It should serve the purpose of a handy reference tool. It is a must for the libraries of colleges, universities, institutes, academies and for scholars. It should prove quite useful not only where Telugu is studied but also where there is a comparative study of modern Indian languages. It also serves the purpose of those non-Telugu scholars, who happen to come across names of Telugu writers and their works. Since Telugu forms one of the languages of Dravidian group, the Encyclopaedia should attract special attention in that part of the country.
