Abstract

Literature (Tholkapiyar) originated under the name of love, as later epistemological grammars expanded on the levels of theft and chastity found in the Tholkapiyar period. In Sangam literature, the human love was sung over the leader and gradually became the divine love in the devotional literature and later turned into human love again in the cynical period.  Romantic Medieval Literature were created in defiance of the notion that the leader should not be named in the songs, and that the hunting action was based on the side. It was a combination of love and heroism. Although Romantic Medieval Literature have declined due to the inability of later poets to combine love and heroism, romantic medieval literature has become an excellent literature in terms of subject matter and content analysis.
