Raj Gauthaman (b. 1950, Virudhnagar) is a leading Tamil intellectual who was part of a core group of mainly dalit writers and thinkers in the 1990s who were behind the influential little magazine, Nirapirigai. He has authored twenty research works that analyse the development of Tamil culture from ancient to modern periods with a focus on subaltern dalit perspectives. He retired as Head of the Tamil Department at the Kanchi Mamunivar Centre for Postgraduate Studies in Puducherry. S. Theodore Baskaran (b. 1940), writes in both Tamil and English. His book The Message Bearers (1981) is a standard reference work on the freedom struggle in South India. His book The Eye of the Serpent: An Introduction to Tamil Cinema (1996) won the Swarna Kamal award from the President of India. He has translated Ullas Kanth, The Way of the Tiger (2004) and Job Thomas, The Chola Bronzes (2019) into Tamil.
