Answer:

MATE HERE IS UR ANSWER:-

Explanation:

The Cilappatikaram is not “the story of the anklet.”

I’m not quibbling with the common translation of the title. What I mean is that the plot does not convey what is truly remarkable about this Tamil epic of the fifth century CE: its texture.

Prince Ilango Adigal brings a heady sensuality and all-embracing humanity to his tale of a woman’s vengeance. His is an exotic South India of sandalwood breezes and dancers with ropes of pearls around their waists. In this colorful world live Buddhists, Jains, and Hindus of all castes. The streets of Puhar teem with priests and smiths and parrot-sellers.

The heroine Kannagi is the last word in dutiful wives. Not only does she forgive her husband Kovalan for spending all their money on a courtesan, she gives Kovalan her anklet to sell when he returns to her.

He tries to sell it to the king’s goldsmith, who coincidentally had stolen the queen’s anklet and decided to frame Kovalan for the theft.

Without a trial, without inquiry, the king orders the execution of Kovalan.

Possessed by a semi-divine fury, Kannagi avenges her husband by torching the king’s city of Madurai. The fire only burns the evil and the corrupt. In the end, Kannagi rejoins Kovalan in heaven as the locals begin to worship her on earth.

Along with scenes of erotic dalliance and fiery vengeance, the Cilappatikaram celebrates the land where, in the poet’s words, farmers are the children of the river Kauveri

Answer 2

In Cilappatikaram, the anklet symbolizes justice, vengeance, and karma.

• Cilappatikaram is one of the oldest Tamil epics. The literal meaning of the word Cilappatikaram is 'a tale of anklet', but this poem is much more than a tale about an anklet.
• The poem can be summarized as the tragic love of Kannaki and her husband Konovan.
• Kannaki sends her husband to sell her golden anklet after forgiving him, as he had spent all his money on a courtesan cheating Kannaki, to start a new life.
• Konovan goes to a goldsmith to sell the anklet but the merchant frames him for stealing it from the queen as the merchant, himself, was the one who stole the anklet.
• The king executes Konovan without any trial. Infuriated by this unjust decision Kannaki sets the town on fire and that fire burns all the corrupt people in the town.
