The authors hope that this paper will provide the framework for studying Poet Kannadasan’s song lyrics in many areas apart from philosophy and human values. In presenting this paper, hermeneutics (a qualitative research methodology) which includes content (song) analysis is used by the authors. This paper is considered to be the first to explore Poet Kannadasan’s philosophy and human values in an academic journal of the English language although several articles have been written in the Values through his songs which are relevant to the Tamil community even today.
Therefore the objective of this paper is to explore Poet Kannadasan’s contribution in teaching philosophy and human However Poet Kannadasan’s contributions are yet to be highlighted sufficiently in media literatures. Among the great lyric writers of Tamil songs from 1944 to 1981 was the legendary Poet Kannadasan (1927 –ġ981) who was also known as Kavi Arasu or king of poets.
Tamil song lyrics are mostly written for cinemas, and research reveals that Tamil cinemas in the twentieth century have formed a major part of mass communication and have also served as mass-entertainment to people mainly due to the stories and song lyrics. For thousands of years music and songs have played an important role in the Tamil community.
