Abstract

Of all the disciplines of man's study, anthropology is the only one that seeks to fully understand man by studying his existence in the space of life, the space in which he lives, and in the evolutionary space of time. Such anthropology falls under four major categories physical anthropology, cultural anthropology, linguistic anthropology, and archeology. The studies of society fall under the category of ethnography. From such an ethnographic point of view, the study explores the novel ‘Kopella Graamam’. Researchers refer to the Kopella Graamam novel as an ethnographic novel. The book reflects the life and history of the Kammavars community who migrated to Tamil Nadu from Andhra Pradesh. It is evident from this study that the novel contains all the elements of ethnography to the extent that it is the forerunner of the novels.
