The May 2026 special issue of the Kalanjiyam International Tamil Research Journal (Vol. 5, Issue 4), guest-edited by Prof. Dr. T. Umadevi, is themed "Sangam Literature, The Tirukkural, and The Epic Vision of Tamil Classics: Ethics, Aesthetics, and Global Resonance." This edition offers a modern re-reading of ancient Tamil literature by applying contemporary frameworks like eco-criticism, semiotics, and feminism to classical texts. The featured articles deeply explore aesthetic elements—such as classical musical traditions, theatrical symbolism in Silappatikaram, and the female gaze in Sangam poetry—alongside core ethical principles like justice, Buddhist monasticism in Manimekalai, and environmental ethics in Thirukkural, aiming to open new avenues in Tamil literary research.
