The Rise and Fall of Ravana


Overview

In Ravanan Maatchiyum Veezhchiyum (""Ravana: His Rise and Fall""), renowned Tamil scholar A. S. Gnanasambanthan offers a profound literary and philosophical analysis of Ravana, the complex anti-hero of Kamban's Ramayanam. Far from a one-dimensional villain, Ravana is portrayed as a brilliant, cultured, and ambitious king whose tragic flaws lead to his downfall. Drawing from classical Tamil texts and poetic nuance, the book explores themes of power, pride, dharma, and fate. A landmark work in Tamil literary criticism, this study invites readers to rethink Ravana's role not only in epic tradition but in the broader human condition.
