Author: Kuppuswamy, Gowri

Issue Date: 1982

Publisher: Sangeet Natak Akademi, New Delhi

Description: Present study is about the Bhajana tradition in South India and bhakti movement. Bhajan implies a genre of devotional music conveying traditional religious values. Bhakti represents the unappeased craving of the heart for God. The South Indian bhajana ritual which was inaugurated by the Hindu revival of the Nayanmars and Alwars and consolidated later by Annamacharya received fresh impetus as a result of the establishment of Marathi rule at Tanjore which heralded the influx of large numbers of Marathi saints and singers.
