	The extension of the [[Vijayanagar Empire]] into the Tamil country began with the southern inroads made by Sangama kings between 1356 and 1378.

The rule of the Vijayanagara kings was characterised by the restoration of religious freedom to the Hindu majority which was denied by the Madurai sultans and a revival of music, arts and crafts. While the rulers of Vijayanagara primarily patronised works of Kannada and Sanskrit, they also expressed interest in Tamil poetry. [[Krishnadevaraya]] is known to have patronised the Tamil poet Harihara, who wrote the ''Irusamaya vilakkam'' (An exposition on Shaivism and Vaishnavism). The Vijayanagara Empire's hold over the Tamil country collapsed in the mid 16th century as the kingdom itself disintegrated into a number of petty chieftainships.

== Literature ==

[[Tamil language|Tamil]] literature from this period came from Tamil speaking regions ruled by the feudatory Pandya who gave particular attention on the cultivation of Tamil literature, some poets were patronised by the Vijayanagara kings. [[Svarupananda Desikar]] wrote an anthology of 2824 verses, ''Sivaprakasap-perundirattu'', on the Advaita philosophy. His pupil the ascetic, [[Tattuvarayar]], wrote a shorter anthology, ''Kurundirattu'', that contained about half the number of verses. Krishnadevaraya patronised the Tamil Vaishnava poet Haridasa whose ''Irusamaya Vilakkam'' was an exposition of the two Hindu systems, Vaishnava and Shaiva, with a preference for the former.<ref name="Tamil1">Nilakanta Sastri (1955), p347</ref>
