The audience of this is for other scholars.
The title of the book needs to be renamed, "Scholarly work on Tamil Linguistic History"
Because, Tamil, a biography does not fit accurately.
What can you quote from this work?
Tamiḻ, means something like “knowing how to love."
"Do you know proper Tamil?”
He means by this: “Do you know how to behave properly as a male lover should"
Knowing Tamil, means to be civilized.
My Suggestions:
The Author constantly inundated with poetry. I understand, they are part of important literary works of Tamil.
I could not follow. I am not interested in archaic, turgid poetry, with exhaustive insights.
Maybe you can enlightenment me -- how I can benefit from them? I am not a Tamil Scholar.
I understand the book is scholarly, many academic works are clear, well-structure.
One can refer this work for scholarly sources of Tamil works
For layman interested in History of Tamil; History of Tamil Nadu, this would not be recommended.
Deus Vult,
