M.VELMURUGAN

Published By : Laxmi Book Publication

Abstract :

The nineteenth century witnessed radical changes in the social history of Tamil Nadu. The process which was started at the beginning of the nineteenth century received an added impetus in the decades before and after the attainment of Independence. A society faces challenges and responses. Tribal conflicts and the pains that arise in wresting food from hostile and inhospitable nature necessarily bring about social interaction. The present study traces the status of depressed class people in Thanjavur district from 1858 to 1967.
