Description

Explore the life and musical legacy of Veena Dhanammal (1866-1938) through this detailed study from the Pathfinders series. Recognized as the embodiment of classicism in Karnatik music, Dhanammal represents a vital link in the history of Indian classical traditions. This book examines her art within the specific cultural, social, and intellectual environments she lived in. It provides a historical look at how the musical landscape of southern India changed during the late nineteenth century. Readers will learn how urbanization shifted Karnatik music from its traditional roots in ritual and courtly settings toward a modern, secular form of entertainment within city spaces. Written by Lakshmi Subramanian from the Department of History at Jamia Millia Islami, this work offers a scholarly perspective on the evolution of musical practice and its connection to social change. It is an essential read for those interested in the history of arts, musicology, and the cultural shifts in southern India.
