Paperback. Condizione: New. Language: English. About the Book: - The tale of guru pramaratan is one of the lighter productions of father Beschi, a Jesuit priest and a native of Italy. Called Viramamooni by the Tamils he was appointed by the pope to the east India mission in 1700. There are eight tales, translated by B. Babington, that show the comical side of a teacher and his disciples. About the Author: - Constantine Joseph Beschi, also known under his Tamil name of V?ram?munivar, was an Italian Jesuit priest, missionary in South India, and Tamil language littérateur. After becoming a Jesuit in 1698, he was trained in Ravenna and Bologna from where he requested and obtained, from Superior General Michelangelo Tamburini, permission to be sent to the Jesuit mission at Madurai in South India. Sailing from Lisbon he reached Goa in October 1710, from where he proceeded immediately to South India. He arrived in Madurai in May 1711. Inspired by what was done in China, Beschi adopted the native Tamilians' lifestyle in his life and in his missionary work. For example, he adopted the saffron coloured robe generally worn by a sannyasi (Indian ascetic). He visited several important centres such as Tirunelveli, Ramanathapuram, Thanjavur and, of course, Madurai to learn the Tamil language. He met with persecution in 171415 and escaped a death sentence. This gave him more time to master the Tamil language in which he soon showed great proficiency.

The first printed edition of the first grammar of High Tamil, never published alongside Constanzo Beschi's groundbreaking Grammatica Latino-tamulica of 1738, his grammar of 'Low' Tamil. The manuscript was in Latin, as were most of the language texts produced by the Dutch missionaries at Tranquebar, but has been translated here into English by Benjamin Guy Babington (1794-1866) for its first printing. Babington is better known for his later contributions to epidemiology, but was working for the Government at Madras when he translated and published this work. Constantine Joseph Beschi (1680-1747), an Italian Jesuit priest at the Madura Mission, was a pioneer of the study of Tamil and the first to pay attention to the rich landscape of Tamil literature, rather than simply knowing the language to help spread the word of God, and his corpus of translations underpin the history of modern Tamil poetry and prose. What makes this present work different to a typical grammar is that he extensively uses poetical verse as examples for his grammatical explanations, and is intended as a guide to translating Tamil literature as sympathetically as possible.
