Abstract: Mayuram Vedanayakam Pillai has written a Tamil novel called Prataba Mudaliar Sarithram, which is a story of the past. The narrative, told in the biographical background of the individual Prataba Mudaliar, is not narrated in a monotonous manner.Realistic storytelling is not important in the text, which is told as a collection of monologues. Narrated as a story within a story, the story is retold narratively, even if it deviates from the original story.A re-reading of Prataba Mudaliar’s historical novel published by Mayuram Vedanayagam Pillai in 1879, one can trace the novel’s relationship with contemporary times.
