They were composed with intent to propound moral guidelines, often without specific religious affiliation, hence, many consider them to be [[secular]]. They are comparable to the [[dharmashastra]] of the Vedic culture.<br /> <br /> ==Late Sangam period==<br /> *[[Tirukkuṛaḷ]] (or the &#039;&#039;[[Kural]]&#039;&#039;)<br /> <br /> ==Post Sangam period==<br /> *[[Nālaṭiyār]]<br /> *[[Nāṉmaṇikkaṭikai]]<br /> *[[Iṉṉā Nāṟpatu]]<br /> *[[Iṉiyavai Nāṟpatu]], &#039;&#039;Forty Sweet things&#039;&#039;<br /> *[[Tirikaṭukam]], &#039;&#039;Three Medications&#039;&#039;<br /> *[[Ācārakkōvai]]<br /> *[[Paḻamoḻi Nāṉūṟu]], &#039;&#039;Four-Hundred Sayings&#039;&#039;<br /> *[[Ciṟupañcamūlam]], &#039;&#039;Minor Origin of the Five&#039;&#039;<br /> *[[Elāti]]<br /> *[[Mutumoḻikkānci]]<br /> <br /> ==Middle ages==<br /> *Aruṉkalaceppu<br /> *Aṟanericcāram, &#039;&#039;Chapter of Good Ethics&#039;&#039;<br /> *Naṟuttokai, &#039;&#039;Anthology of Goodness&#039;&#039;<br /> *Nītineṟiviḷakkam, &#039;&#039;Explanation of Laws and Morals&#039;&#039;<br /> *Nanneṟi, &#039;&#039;Good Ethics&#039;&#039;<br /> *Ulakanīti. &#039;&#039;Universal Law&#039;&#039;<br /> *Mutumoḻi Veṉpā &#039;&#039;The [[Venpa]] of Wise language&#039;&#039;<br /> *Āticūṭi, &#039;&#039;Classic of the [[Bauhinia racemosa|Orchid]]&#039;&#039;<br /> *Konṟai Vēntan, &#039;&#039;Lord of the [[Cassia fistula|Golden Shower]]&#039;&#039;<br /> *Mūturai, &#039;&#039;Counsel of the wise&#039;&#039;<br /> *Nalvaḻi, &#039;&#039;Good path&#039;&#039;<br /> <br /> ==Modern==<br /> <br /> *Putiya Āticūṭi, &#039;&#039;New Āticūṭi&#039;&#039;<br /> *Neṟicūṭi, &#039;&#039;Classic of Ethics&#039;&#039;<br /> *Tamiḻcūṭi, &#039;&#039;Classic of Tamil&#039;&#039;<br /> *Nīticūṭi, &#039;&#039;Classic of Law&#039;&#039;<br /> *Nīticintāmaṉi, &#039;&#039;Thought gem of Law&#039;&#039;<br /> *Poṉmatimālai<br /> *Nītinūl, &#039;&#039;Book of Law&#039;&#039;<br /> *Nītipētam<br /> *Vivēkacintāmaṉi, &#039;&#039;Thought gem of wisdom&#039;&#039;<br /> <br /> {{Tamil language}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Legal history of India]]<br /> [[Category:Tamil-language literature]]<br /> [[Category:Tamil philosophy]]<br /> [[Category:Law books]]</div>
