Ethnographic Aspects of Nanjil Nadu People in Jayanmohan’s Works

Ethnography sums up elements of a particular community and people, such as culture, customs, habitation, the geography of the area where they live, water, land, animals, plants, caste hierarchies, power systems, etc. Jayamohan is a well-known author in the Tamil and Malayalam literary worlds. He made the legends, old traditional stories, and myths of India re-read by the readers. He was born into a Malayali Nair family, and Malayalam became his mother tongue. He became well acquainted with the Tamil language because he studied and worked in Tamil Nadu. He started publishing works in both languages. It is only natural that the people of Nanjil Nadu, where he lived, found a place in his works. Thus, the purpose of this study is to analyze the soil, water, forest, animals, plants, people, and their culture on the basis of the ethnography of Nanjil Nadu, which is included in the works of the creator, Jayamohan.
