About this ebook

Malayalam translation of ‘Chattampi Swami: An Intellectual Biography’ published earlier in English. Chattampi Swamikal was the harbinger of renaissance and reformation in Kerala. His thoughts and work resulted in the social, and political  movements that later modernized Kerala. For the first time he gave voice to those who were marginalized.  He made knowledge and spirituality integral to the social and democratic endeavor.The book adds new dimensions to the understanding of the extraordinary figure of the late nineteenth century renaissance in India . Documenting the aspects neglected by earlier biographers the authors make a remarkable contribution to our understanding of the man behind the myth. This is a translated and updated version of the earlier English work and contains three additional chapters and more than 250 illustrations which includes many rare photographs not earlier published. A comprehensive bibliography, which will be of help for further research and a detailed index, add value to the book.
