520 _aThe Cambridge Companion to Periyar presents a comprehensive account of his interventions on these topics and his complex politics and brings conversations from the Tamil world to a global audience. The chapters are contributions from established and emerging academics in different fields and look at Periyar from diverse disciplinary perspectives. Crucial events from Periyar’s life are discussed, as are critical aspects of Periyar’s thought. New published material is engaged with and old scholarship is revisited, reflecting the core concerns of Periyar and placing them in broader intellectual and historical contexts. The volume aims to draw attention to a non-canonical thinker whose important intellectual and political contributions transcend the limits of his context. Drawing upon new sources, challenging myths, and crossing disciplinary boundaries, it presents a Periyar for the times.
