Description:
Comparing Titans is a significant academic work comparing two iconic figures in world literature - Thiruvalluvar and Shakespeare.
Separated by a span of some 1500 years, they operate in different genres and in very different cultural milieus. But universal humanism and innate sensitivity bring them together and make them vibrantly contemporary. Irai Anbu has drawn many strands of comparison and woven them into a beautiful tapestry. This book is marked by depth of scholarship and perceptive insights.
