Marthandavarma (Malayalam: മാർâ€à´¤àµà´¤à´¾à´£àµà´¡à´µàµ¼â€à´®àµà´®, MÄṟttÄṇá¸avaṟmma [mÉ‘Ëṟt̪t̪ɑËɳɖaÊ‹aṟmma]) is a historical romance novel by C. V. Raman Pillai published in 1891. It recounts the history of Venad (Travancore) during the final period of Rajah Rama Varma’s reign and subsequently to the accession of Marthanda Varma. Set in Kollavarsham 901–906 (Gregorian calendar: 1727–1732), the story revolves around three protagonists, Ananthapadmanabhan, Subhadra and Mangoikkal Kuruppu, who try to protect the titular character from Padmanabhan Thambi and Ettu Veetil Pillamar who plan to oust him from the throne of Travancore. The novel utilizes rich allusions to the Indian subcontinent and Western, historical, cultural and literary traditions.
The historical plot is aided with the love story of one of the lead pairs, Ananthapadmanabhan and Parukutty, the chivalric actions of the former, and the aspects of romanticism in the longing of Parukutty for her lover as well as in the unrequited love of Zulaikha. The yesteryear politics of Venad is presented thru the council of Ettuveettil Pillas, the subsequent claim of throne for Padmanabhan Thambi, the coup attempt, the patriotic conduct of Subhadra, and finally to her tragedy following the suppression of revolt. The intertwined representation of history and romance is attained thru classic style of narration, which includes vernacular languages for various characters, rhetorical embellishments, and the blend of dramatic and archaic style of language suitably to the bygone period.
This novel is the first historical novel published in Malayalam language and in south India. The first edition, self published by the author in 1891, received positive to mixed reviews, but book sales did not produce significant revenue. The revised edition, published in 1911, was an enormous success and became a bestseller. The story of Travancore is continued in the later novels, Dharmaraja (1913) and Ramarajabahadur (1918–1919). These three novels are together known as CV's Historical Narratives and C. V. Raman Pillai's Novel Trilogy in Malayalam literature.
The 1933 movie adaptation Marthanda Varma led to a legal dispute with the novel's publishers and became the first literary work in Malayalam to be the subject of a copyright infringement. The novel has been translated into English, Tamil, and Hindi, and has also been abridged and adapted in a number of formats, including theater, radio, television, and comic book. The Marthandavarma has been included in the curriculum for courses offered by universities in Kerala and Tamil Nadu, as well as the curriculum of the Kerala State Education Board.
Historical background and context
The Venad kingdom under Ravi Varma (Kollavarsham 859–893, Gregorian Calendar: 1684–1718) had to resist the foreign attacks and do the eventual payments of arrears to Madurai Nayaks; which resulted in the imposition of fresh taxes to meet the expenses. This made the feudal chieftains, the feudal lords (Ettuveettil Pillamar) and their confederates (Madampimar), who were once suppressed by Kerala Varma of Kottayam (Wayanad) during the period of Umayamma Rani, to become recalcitrant.[1] Ravi Varma was succeeded by Aditya Varma (Kollavarsham 893–894, Gregorian Calendar:1718), and during his reign, resolutions are made by the local bodies in villages not to pay the taxes.[2] Unni Kerala Varma succeeded to the throne, and during his reign, the feudal chieftains became more powerful as the King was weak in disposition. The forces once organized by Kerala Varma were disbanded and some of them took services under the feudal lords.[3] Unni Kerala Varma was succeeded by Rama Varma in Kollavarsham 899 (Gregorian Calendar: 1724); during his reign the feudal lords were grown stronger.[4][5]
Rama Varma, pleased with the energy and intelligence of the then prince Marthanda Varma, allowed the latter to take necessary actions in the affairs of government; which the prince utilized to adopt the measures against rebellious spirit of feudal lords, who in-turn became his inveterate enemies and planned lethal actions against the prince.[6] Marthanda Varma suggested to the King to avail aid from the foreign forces against the power of feudal lords, and Rama Varma made a treaty with Madurai Nayaks at Tiruchirappalli in Kollavarsham 901 (Gregorian Calendar 1726) to have additional forces be supplied to Venad for an annual payment.[5]
Context
The Travancore royal family follows Marumakkathayam as the rule of succession, which is collateral descent through maternal nephews.[7] The feudatory chiefs persuaded the sons of King Rama Varma, Pappu Thambi and Raman Thambi to claim their father’s throne through Makkathayam, which is lineal descent through sons, while Marthanda Varma was the legal heir.[8] The novel opens in Kollavarsham 901, when feudatory chiefs are taking lethal actions against prince Marthanda Varma, while King Rama Varma headed to Tiruchirappalli for the treaty with Nayaks.[9] The plot moves two years ahead during when the payment to Madurai forces became arrears, the King become ill and bed ridden, feudatory chiefs and sons of Rama Varma joined hands in conspiring against the prince.[10]
The novel narrates how Marthanda Varma ascended to the throne overcoming the hurdles[11] with the help of his well wishers and the entanglements of their personal lives with the history of Travancore (Venad).[12][13]
Title
The novel released with the title scripted as മാൎതàµà´¤à´¾à´£àµà´¡à´µàµŽà´®àµà´®à´¾ in Malayalam, for which the Latin equivalent is MÄṟttÄṇá¸avaṟmmÄ. Though the original title is a single word, the English counterpart was scripted as Martanda Varma with a space between Martanda and Varma akin to the scripting of the title in Tamil as மாரà¯à®¤à¯à®¤à®¾à®£à¯à®Ÿ வரà¯à®®à®¾. The title was later changed to മാൎതàµà´¤à´¾à´£àµà´¡à´µàµŽà´®àµà´® in the editions brought out by Kamalalaya Book Depot by omitting the long Monophthong vowel sign à´¾ (Ä) in the end, the English counterpart was corrected as Marthandavarma.

Plot summary
In Panchavan forest a group of merchants find a young man, Ananthapadmanabhan, unconscious and covered in blood. They take him with them. Two years later, Parukutty still refuses to believe that her missing lover, Ananthapadmanabhan, is dead. Her mother arranges for her to marry Padmanabhan Thambi, elder son of aging King Rama Varma, through Thambi's right hand, Sundarayyan. The king has fallen ill and is confined to his bed. Desiring the throne, Thambi, with Sundarayyan, spreads the lie that the rightful heir, Prince Marthanda Varma, planned the attack on Ananthapadmanabhan because of an argument over a prostitute. Thambi allies himself with the Ettuveettil Pillas to oust the prince, stirring up the people against him and the royal officials. Some citizens stop paying taxes and the forces and finances of the royals are diminished.
Prince Marthanda Varma and his aide, Parameswaran Pilla, go to Bhoothapandi. The forces from Madurai are camped there, unwilling to support the royals until they are paid the full price agreed upon by the king. A payment, brought by the prime minister, was insufficient and he was forced to stay as an assurance of payment. Marthanda Varma worries that Raman Thambi, the king's second son, may adversely influence the Madurai forces while visiting. When the prince and his aide are at Padmanabhapuram, Padmanabhan Thambi arrives. To evade him, they travel through an underground tunnel to Charottu palace.
While visiting Thambi’s palace, Sundarayyan sees the prince's aide and tips off Velu Kuruppu, a loyalist fighter who serves Padmanabhan Thambi. Velu Kuruppu and lancers chase the prince and his aide from Charottu palace. A mad Channan, Ananthapadmanabhan in disguise, helps the duo escape by fighting with their pursuers. He is in turn rescued by an archer who is indebted to him for saving his life when he was bitten by a snake. The prince and his aide take refuge at Mangoikkal Kuruppu's house. Velu Kuruppu tells his master, Thambi, about the fight with the Channan. Following Thambi's order to capture the Channan-people, the mad Channan is captured and locked in the dungeon. Upon discovering that Marthanda Varma is at Mangoikkal's house, Velu Kuruppu sends his men to the house and rushes back to Thambi to arrange for more lancers and Nair soldiers to finish off the prince. The mad Channan finds an underground passage from the dungeon to Charottu palace.
As the prince and Mangoikkal arrange for additional forces, Velu Kuruppu and his men launch an attack on Mangoikkal. The mad Channan leaves Charottu palace and rushes to the Channan-people. Mangoikkal and his nephews try to resist Velu Kuruppu’s men as they surround the house and set it afire. The mad Channan and the Channan-people reach Mangoikkal's house and fight the attackers. The mad Channan rescues the prince and his aide from the house before its consumed by fire. Fighters from Mangoikkal's martial arts school join the fight and defeat Velu Kuruppu’s men. That night, Thirumukhathu Pilla visits Thambi to ask about the murder of his son, Ananthapadmanabhan. One of Velu Kuruppu’s lancers arrives and tells of the defeat at Mangoikkal's.
Marthanda Varma returns to his Thiruvananthapuram home. A message arrives at Chembakasserry from Thirumukhathu Pilla about his son's murder. Parukutty still refuses to believe Ananthapadmanabhan is dead. Thambi and Sundarayyan arrive to stay at Chembakassery. At night, Ananthapadmanabhan, disguised as a citizen of Kasi (Kasivasi) enters Chembakassery by drugging the caretaker of the armory. Thambi, overwhelmed by Parukutty's beauty, goes to her room to attain her but is dragged out by Kasivasi. Half asleep, Parukutty is disturbed by glimpses of the scuffle and falls ill. Later, Sundarayyan steals ornaments from the house.
Thambi and his team leave the next morning. Kazhakkoottathu Pilla comes to inquire into Parukutty's illness. He is then followed by Ananthapadmanabhan, disguised as a beggar, to Kudamon Pilla's house. At Kudamon's house a council is formed by the Ettuveettil Pillas and Sundarayyan in support of Padmanabhan Thambi as the next king. Kazhakkoottathu Pilla voices his dissatisfaction with the situation but assures his support. He leaves the council, followed by the beggar. Kazhakkoottathu meets Mangoikkal on the way. The beggar returns to the council to hear the final decision. The council decides to assassinate Prince Marthanda Varma.
Afterwards, Ramanamadathil Pilla meets Subhadra, the granddaughter of Kudamon Pilla's maternal aunt. Kazhakkoottathu tricks Mangoikkal and abducts him. As Sundarayyan is returning from the council, he is confronted by the beggar who tries to snatch the council note from him. Struggling, they both fall into the Killiyar. The beggar rescues Sundarayyan, who cannot swim. Sundarayyan awakes on the shore and delivers the council decision to Thambi. Learning of Parukutty's illness, Subhadra goes to console her mother and learns about Thambi’s stay and the theft at the house. At the royal palace a message arrives from Pathan camp warning of the council at Kudamon Pilla’s house, as the resolution is unknown, the prince should stay alert at all times. The message also announces the arrival of Mangoikkal. Ramayyan recommends strict action against the conspirators but the prince disagrees. During the discussion the prince realizes that Kalakkutty, whom he had sent to deliver a request for help to Thirumakhathu Pilla, is the maternal uncle-in-law of Sundarayyan. The prince's aide goes to find Mangoikkal but returns unsuccessful. The prince says the Ettuveettil Pillas may have harmed Mangoikkal. At this, his aide rushes to Pathan camp.
Meanwhile, Thambi sends Sundarayyan to ask about Parukutty’s illness. Sundarayyan, frightened from last night's fight, hides in the house. Subhadra arrives and asks Thambi about his actions at Chembakassery. Thambi says he was confronted by Ananthapadmanabhan's ghost before he could touch Parukutty and he does not know anything about the ornaments. During the conversation Thambi realizes that Subhadra knows that the murder that he and Sundarayyan are trying to blame on the prince was committed by Velu Kuruppu. Thambi goes to stab her with his dagger but, seeing her unmoved, he shrinks back. When Subhadra leaves, Thambi and Sundarayyan decide to kill her, as she knows their secret.
Sundarayyan buys poison at Pathan camp but Ananthapadmanabhan, disguised as Shamsudeen, sells him a harmless colored powder. Subhadra persuades Shanku Assan to tell her if the Kasivasi who entered Chambakassery the other night is still at Pathan camp. On his return from Pathan camp, Assan tells her that Sundarayyan was there buying poison. At Pathan camp, Hakkim warns Shamsudeen to be careful of danger when searching for Mangoikkal. Subhadra realizes that Sundarayyan plans to poison her and returns home. The prince and his aide, disguised as civilians, go with Ramayyan to look for Mangoikkal.
At night, Ramayyan goes to Sree Pandarathu house, home of Kazhakkoottathu, searching for Mangoikkal. The prince and his aide, sheltered behind a tree, notice an unidentifiable figure (Velu Kuruppu) pass by in a westerly direction. Later, the prince witnesses Sundarayyan heading to his wife, Anantham's, house. Subhadra is with Ramanamadathil Pilla, who leaves after assuring her that he will return. As Ramanamadathil passes by, the prince overhears him talking to himself about the greatness of Kazhakkoottathu Pilla, who captured Mangoikkal. Ramayyan returns to the prince and tells him that he could not check at Sree Panadarathu house due to additional security forces stationed there. The prince sends him to Anantham's house to learn her husband’s plans.
Ramayyan soon returns as Sundarayyan and Anantham were talking behind the doors and the house's parameter was being watched by Sundarayyan's brother, Kodanki. Velu Kuruppu arrives at Thambi’s house. Pleased to see him, Thambi hides him in his house. The prince and his aides leave to check on the ailing king. The archer, Chulliyil Chadachi Marthandan Pilla, chases after them, shooting arrows. The arrows are struck down by the mad Channan who then beats down the archer. Anantham brings food, that her husband secretly poisoned, to Subhadra. Subhadra realizes that the stolen ornaments are at Anantham's house and that she is unaware of her husband's plans. The mad Channan, hiding nearby, overhears their conversation. Ramanamadathil, Sundarayyan and Chulliyil Chadachi Marthandan Pilla visit Thambi’s house to talk about assassinating the prince.
When Ramanamadathil returns, Subhadra realizes the plan to assassinate the prince by Velu Kuruppu. She sends Shankarachar to deliver a note to the prince, orders ten of her servants to retrieve the ornaments and orders her servant Pappu to announce at Thambi’s house that she is dead. She sends another servant to Pathan camp. At the king’s palace, the prince is relieved to find that the king is a bit better after receiving medicine. Velu Kuruppu attempts to stab the prince while he is returning to his palace with his aide. Shankarachar stops him, they fight and Velu Kuruppu stabs Shankarachar then runs away. The prince and his aide reach Shankarachar, who manages to deliver the note before his final breath. Velu Kuruppu reaches Thambi, who summons Ramanamadathil, Chulliyil Chadachi Marthandan Pilla, Sundarayyan and Kodanki. They decide to move Mangoikkal from Sree Pandarathu house to Chembakassery.
Meanwhile, the mad Channan goes to Sree Pandarathu house, drugs the guards and gets the keys. He finds Mangoikkal in the dungeon but Ramanamadathil and company arrive and cut off their escape. In turn, Velu Kuruppu then Kondanki approach the Channan and are shot dead by his pistol. Chulliyil Chadachi Marthandan Pilla draws his bow. The Channan takes another pistol from his waist. Ramanamadathil intervenes and says that they will go to Chembakassery and be prosecuted by Thirumikhathu Pilla. The Channan agrees on the condition that he be allowed to keep his weapons. Subhadra’s servants return with the items from Anantham's house. Subhadra sends two of her servants to learn the whereabouts of Shankarachar. After a few hours the servants return with news of the deaths that occurred that night. Mangoikkal and the Channan are moved to Chembakassery and are watched over by palace guards who are loyal to Thambi. Sundarayyan and others spread the lie that prince Marthanda Varma tried to assassinate Ramanamadathil and is responsible for the night's murders.
Anantham tells Subhadra about the theft at her house. Saddened, Subhadra gets some relief when her servant returns from Pathan camp with medicine for Parukutty. He also tells her that one of the men at the camp resembles her ex-spouse. Pappu announces Subhadra's death at Thambi’s house but one of Thambi’s servants brings news of the theft at Sundarayyan’s house and Sundarayyan learns from his wife that Subhadra still lives. An angry mob of citizens rushes the palace, but are turned back by the ailing king who signals them to leave. Ramanamadathil arrives at Thambi’s house to tell about the revolt at the palace and praises the actions of Sundarayyan. Chulliyil Chadachi Marthandan Pilla and a servant arrive and announce the death of King Rama Varma. After Rama Varma's funeral, Marthanda Varma manages to send the required payment to the forces from Madurai. Subhadra reaches Chembakassery with medicine for Parukutty, who immediately begins to recover from her illness. Subhadra stays at Chembakassery for the next five days.
The prince discovers that the men sent from Kilimanoor, led by Narayanayyan, have been defeated by Kazhakkoottathu Pilla and his men. He fires the palace guards who are working for Thambi. At Chembakassery, Subhadra explains that one of the men in detention is a mad man and should be released. Subhadra returns home after learning of the council being held at her house by Thambi and team. Parukutty gets the caretaker to release the two men from detention. She and her mother take the keys down to the dungeon. Upon release, the mad Channan tries to conceal his true identity by running ahead. He is followed by Mangoikkal. Parukutty sees his resembles to her missing lover and realizes that he is the one who fought off Thambi the night he tried to attain her. Ettuveettil Pillas, the Thambi brothers and Sundarayyan decide to assassinate the prince at the palace that night. Mangoikkal's nephews arrive at the palace to support the prince. He tells them to come in the morning and coordinate with Ramayyan.
Later, the prince is awakened from his sleep by Subhadra's arrival in his room. She tells him his life is in danger. He must leave the palace at once and move his nephew and aunt to a safe place. The prince follows her after remembering that she was the one who helped him another night. Kudamon Pilla, Padmanabhan Thambi and company enter the palace to assassinate the prince but find no one. Subhadra sends her servant in another direction and then heads to her house with Marthanada Varma, Parameswaran and Ramayyan who are disguised as menials. They are spotted by Raman Thambi and his team on the way, but she and the trio evade him due to her quick thinking. The trio hide near a banyan tree while Subhadra fetches five men, dressed as porters, from her home and rejoins them. She instructs them to cross Venganoor. They are about to leave when Thirumukhathu Pilla arrives and recognizes the prince. He asks Subhadra why she is helping the one who killed her brother, Ananthapadmanabhan. She assures him that her brother is not dead. Thirumukhathu reveals that he is her father. Subhadra says that her brother will be at Pathan camp.
Subhadra goes home and the others head east as Thirumukhathu knows that Aruveettukar are waiting near the west banks of the river, Karamana. Unable to find the prince, Thambi and the Ettuveettil Pillas lead their forces to Manakkadu, to attack Magaoikkal's fighters. Tipped off by Subhadra, Mangoikkal's fighters are able to put up a stiff resistance despite being outnumbered. Pathan fighters led by Shamsudeen and Beeram Khan arrive and assist against Thambi’s forces. Shamsudeen fights Thambi while Beeram Khan fights Sundarayyan who he has a personal grudge against for causing his separation from, his then-spouse, Subhadra. Sundarayyan brings down Beeram Khan's horse, trapping the latter under the horse. Sundarayyan advances towards him but Beeram Khan springs out from under the body, kills his opponent and leaves the battlefield at once. Shamsudeen shoots Thambi in the hand as he is about to kill Nuradeen. Before Ramanamadathil Pilla and Raman Thambi can advance towards Shamsudden the battlefield is surrounded by Thirumukhathu Pilla and Prince Marthanda Varma's forces. The Thambi brothers and the Ettuveettil Pillas are arrested.
The next day, the prince conducts post funerary rituals for the king. He brings back his nephew, the little prince, and aunt, who were safeguarded by Keralavarma Koithampuran at Chembakassery. There, a joyful Parakutty awaits her lover Ananthapadmanabhan's return from the Pathan camp. A few days later, Marthanda Varma ascends the throne at Pathan camp. It is revealed that Ananthapadmanabhan was attacked two years ago by Velu Kuruppu at Panchavan forest when the he was on his way to aid the prince. He was rescued by the Pathan people. The king orders Ananthapadmanabhan to move Subhadra from her house to safeguard her from Kudamon Pilla, who the king has just released. Subhadra is at her house and sad due to the revelation about her ex-spouse. Kudamon Pilla arrives, catches her by the hair and is about to plunge his sword but Beeram Khan rushes in crying not to kill her. On hearing the voice of her ex-spouse and seeing him longing for her, she thanks god that she can even die. The sword falls on her neck. Before Kudamon Pilla can slay Beeram Khan, he is cut into two by Ananthapadmanabhan who has just arrived. On hearing the news, Marthanda Varma swears under his breath that he will seek vengeance on those responsible for the un-warranted deed of blood.
Three years later, Mangoikkal's house has been rebuilt. Ananthapadmanabhan heads Marthanda Varma’s forces in battles with Desinganadu and other kingdoms. He stays at Chembakassery with his family. Marthanda Varma earns fame as a protector of the people as well as a servant to Sreepadmanabha deity. The people celebrate.
Characters
Development
Background and composition
C. V. Raman Pillai was introduced to historical fiction through the works of Sir Walter Scott and Alexandre Dumas during his days at Maharaja's College, Thiruvananthapuram.[14] After graduating in 1881,[15] Pillai traveled to the southern provinces of Travancore with his friend P. Thanu Pillai, then the Tahsildar at Agastheeswaram, and became acquainted with the regional legends that he later incorporated in his novels.[16]
Mukkalampattu Janaki Amma remembers Bhageeridhi Amma telling her that before starting to write Marthandavarma, Pillai used to read English novels and take notes.[17] While writing Marthandavarma, Pillai had difficulty sleeping and his constant betel chewing instigated his writing.[18] During the composition, Pillai’s spouse and Mukkalampattu Janaki Amma were amanuenses, whenever one of them was free. However, Ms. Thazhamadathu Janaki Amma, a neighbor, actually transcribed more for the author than either of them.[17] Pillai went to Madras to pursue his law examination.[19][20]
In January 1890, the Malayalam novel Indulekha was released and became a topic of discussion among the friends-circles in Madras.[22] The instant fame of Indulekha and its author O. Chandumenon swayed C. V. Raman Pillai to complete his novel Marthandavarma.[23] N. Balakrishnan Nair states an account of challenge raised by some Malabarians that whether there were any men in Travancore who could create a literary work as Indulekha, to which C. V. Raman Pillai reciprocated that he will prove it as affirmative.[24] According to P. K. Parameswaran Nair, for almost two months from then, author was involved in the scripting of Marthandavarma.[23] C. V. Raman Pillai, while involved in the discussions of memorandum, mentioned to G. Parameswaran Pillai that with the publication of his novel, Marthandavarma, people would be proud about their early history. Eventually he was not interested to pass the law examinations, as his main intention was to complete Marthandavarma novel and ready the manuscript for printing.[25] C. V. Raman Pillai left for Trivandrum after he was entrusted to translate the memorandum to Malayalam.[22] According N. Balakrishnan Nair, the author rejoined in his job on Ciá¹…á¹…aá¹ 9, 1066 (August 23, 1890).[26]
C. V. Raman Pillai sent the completed chapters to his friend N. Raman Pillai at Madras, who in turn edited and contributed to the manuscript.[27] The author’s earlier experiences of having estranged from home, his life with Muslims at Hyderabad, having suggested converting to Islam and marry a Muslim girl were adapted to build the characterization of Shamsudeen and the descriptions of Pathan camp in the novel.[28] The character of Karthyayani Amma is based on his elder sister, and the attire of Velu Kuruppu was based on the outlook of K. C. Kesava Pillai.[26]
Controversy over the period
According to P. K. Parameswaran Nair, consensus is the novel was developed during 1890, though he claimed that the author wrote it between 1883 and 1885, which contradicts his own statement that C. V. Raman Pillai thought about writing a novel only at the age of twenty-eight years, which is around 1887.[29] Dr. P. Venugopalan affirms that there is an earlier version of the novel, and that N. Raman Pillai listened to a reading of an early draft while at Madras.[30] The affirmation about the inclusion of Subhadra in the earlier version of novel brought out another contradiction to the claim of P. K. Parameswaran Nair with his own quotes from the words of C. V. Raman Pillai, which state that the author envisioned the character of Subhadra through his wife, Bhageeridhi Amma, whom he married only in November 1887.[31] One of Pillai's later amanuenses, K. R. Prameswaran Pilla, quoted the author as saying that he started writing Marthandavarma while staying in Madras.[32] N. Balakrishanan Nair notes that, Pillai made several visits to Madras with the particulars from N. Raman Pillai’s home, while G. Parameswaran Pillai and the latter were in Madras.[33] Dr. George Irumbayam asked P. K. Parameswaran Nair about the existence of such a letter, who said that he had lost it. The claim of P. K. Parameswaran Nair and those who supported the same were concluded as attempts of fans of C. V. Raman Pillai, whom they wanted to cast as the first novelist of Malayalam literature, and Dr. George Irumbayam remarked that the fans went to the extent of not believing the words of the writer in the deliberation of their attempt.[34]
Printing
P. K. Parameswaran Nair states that the proceedings with printers at Madras were initiated after the completion of novel writing, which contradicts his own statement about the completion of printing till 150 pages while quoting a letter from N. Raman Pillai, whose words indicate that the scripting was in progress.[27] K. R. Parameswaran Pilla notes that the printing of the novel was started after the completion of third chapter.[35] The printing was done at Messrs. Addison & Co., Madras, to whom the manuscripts were passed over by N. Raman Pillai.[27] N. Balakrishnan Nair points that C. V. Raman Pillai went to hometown from Madras to arrange the money for printing, and during the time, he sent the manuscripts to N. Raman Pillai.[24]
C. V. Raman Pillai was involved in the Malayalam translation of memorandum proposed by G. Prameswaran Pillai titled then as MalayÄḷi Memorial followed by the printing and getting the signatures from supporters, and being involved in the activities, he fell short of money as some promised sponsors pulled out fearing an adverse reaction from Government.[36] K. P. Sankara Menon and G. Parameswaran Pillai came to Trivandrum by the end of December 1890 for campaigning about the memorandum. C. V. Raman Pillai bore the expenses of their commutations and proceedings, and went on to sell his wife’s necklace to meet the requirements.[37] The memorandum was eventually sent to the king on January 10, 1891 by K. P. Sankara Menon.[38]
The financial crunch due to the situations put C. V. Raman Pillai in a difficulty that he could not meet the expenses to complete the printing of the remaining chapters as intended; so, he made a concise version and got it printed as part of twenty-sixth chapter, which thus became the final chapter of the novel. P. K. Parameswaran Nair states that there were three more chapters after the twenty-sixth chapter by referring to a letter from N. Raman Pillai, who came to know about the concise narration only after getting the printed copy as he had left to Thiruvananthapuram before the completion of printing, criticized the author regarding the same.[39] According to N. Balakrishnan Nair, the concise version included in twenty-sixth chapter is an abridgement of two intended chapters. C. V. Raman Pillai states in the preamble that he wanted to have an annexure at the end of the novel.[24]
Publication
Release
When printing of further copies with errata was over, C. V. Raman Pillai made a request for permission on April 13, 1891 to submit the first copy at royal palace, and subsequently the book was released on June 11, 1891 after presenting the first copy to Aswathi Thirunal Marthanda Varma, to whom the book is also dedicated to.[40] Pillai sent two copies to Kerala Varma Valiya Koil Thampuran, one for the recipient and another for recipient’s wife, which was acknowledged in the recipient's letter to the author dated June 24, 1891.[41] N. Balakrishnan Nair states that author gave several copies of book as complimentary ones, out of the total 1000 copies printed.[42] According to P. K. Parameswaran Nair, the publication of Marthandavarma was a great event in the history of Malayalam literature.[41] The novel was the first of its kind in Malayalam literature, the release of the novel made Malayalam the sixth[upper-alpha 1] Indian language and first Dravidian language to have a novel in the genre of historical fiction, thus became the first[upper-alpha 2] historical novel of South India.
Revised edition
In 1911, Kulakkunnathu Raman Menon,[lower-roman 1] who owned B. V. Book Depot at Trivandrum, acquired rights of the novel, to publish from his own publishing house.[61] C. V. Raman Pillai did a revision for the new edition, in which he had replaced the edits of N. Raman Pillai in the first edition with his own. The author corrected the flaws in the usages of Sanskrit and Malayalam words, together with the change of phrases that are in line with the then usages of Malayalam. The changes included the removal of a precognitive narration about the death of Padmanabhan Thambi at Nagercoil, removal of reference to an earlier spouse of character Anantham prior to her relationship with Sundarayyan and removal of references to mistresses from Thanjavur.[62] The copyrights of the novel were registered on August 11, 1911,[40] and D. C. Kizhakemuri notes that the copyrights were reserved until December 31, 1972.[63]

Critical reception
In the review appeared on The Hindu, Madras edition dated December 21, 1891, the novel is mentioned as a respectable specimen what an Indian graduate is capable of accomplishing in the department of fiction.[78] P. Thanu Pillai rated the novel as a rare and valuable addition to the literature of Malayalam.[79] Kerala Varma Valiya Koil Thampuran and Kodungallur Kunjikkuttan Thampuran ranked the novel as better than the heretofore-released novels[upper-alpha 4] in Malayalam. Kilimanoor Ravi Varma Koil Thampuran remarked that he could not keep aside the novel once he started reading the book. P. Sundaram Pillai stated that he read the novel with so much pride.[41] The review in The Hindu criticized the free usage of Sanskrit words, which will make novel to be enjoyed by the elite people and not the general readers.[77] Kerala Varma Valiya Koil Thampuran criticized the inappropriate usages of Sanskrit words, among which some[upper-alpha 6] are remarked as unpardonable blunders.[87]
General reception
When Marthandavarma was released, the people of Trivandrum devoured it.[77] N. Balakrishnan Nair notes that the release of novel was celebrated like a literary festival at Trivandrum.[88] Though the novel became the topic of discussion in cottages, elite circles, clubs and law courts, the sale of book was very poor.[89] The author did not even get the required revenue to pay the printing costs,[30] and at one point of time, he took one hundred numbers of unsold books as a bundle to his elder brother, who was then the Tehsildar at Muvattupuzha and demanded one hundred rupees. C. V. Raman Pillai had sent unsold copies of the novel to P. Ayyappan Pillai[lower-roman 3], the then Education Secretary and to his friend P. Thanu Pillai, the then Manager of Huzur Court (Court of Appeal) at their respective offices, to have those sold. N. Balakrishnan Nair notes that the remaining copies among the one thousand numbers of first print were damaged due to infestation by termites.[91] The general reading people slowly accepted the novel and, the author went on to release five more editions until 1911.[61]
Reception of revised edition
The revised edition of the novel, published in 1911 by Kulalakkunnathu Raman Menon's publishing house,[lower-alpha 1] received overwhelming positive response and became one of the best sellers of the period. N. Balakrishnan Nair notes that the sale of book was similar to that of Adhyatma Ramayana and by 1951 Kamalalaya Book Depot released the 25th edition.[61] Dr. P. Venugopalan states that it is not doubtful that Marthandavarma is the most sold book in Malayalam.[94]
- ↑ In 1931, the publishing house, B. V. Book Depot and Kamalalaya Printing Works and copyrights of various titles were divided among the sons & daughters and brothers & sisters of the founder, Kulakkunnathu S. Raman Menon, who died in 1925, as B. V. Book Depot and Kamalalaya Book Depot to proceed as separate institutions respectively.[92] Kamalalaya Book Depot retained the rights of Marthandavarma, and brought out further editions, translations, abridgment under the labels, Kamalalaya Book Depot, Kamalalaya Book Depot & Printing Works, and Kamalalaya Printing Works & Book Depot.[93]
Theme
History and chivalric romance
In the preamble, Pillai states that he wrote the book with the intention of creating a model of historical romance in Malayalam; historical events of the eighteenth century serve as the skeleton of the story.[95] The novel presents the events during Kollavarsham 901 to 906 (Gregorian Calendar: 1726–1731), pertaining to disputes over the throne of Venad during 1729.[96] According to George Irumbayam, history is wrapped in romance,[97][98] and K. M. Tharakan echoes that point.[99] The internal conflicts in this novel are presented through the character of Subhadra, while most of major conflicts in the novel are external.[100] Dr. Kalpatta Balakrishnan notes that Anathapadmanabhan's heroic adventures combine romance and history.[101][102][103] The novel promotes hero-worship and patriotism through romantic affectation, a mode maintained until the end.[104]
Romance and romanticism
The realistic aspects of the novel are presented through conversations,[99] which in its inherence and vigor provide an individuality to the story.[105] Dr. George Irumbayam is of the view that the romantic elements in the novel are intertwined with the realistic legibility of historical elements.[106] The honest behavior of Mangoikkal Kuruppu to the prince, the anxious preparations of Karthyayani Amma to receive Padmanabhan Thambi, short-tempered reactions of Shanku Assan represent realistic aspects in the novel.[107][108] N. Balakrishnan Nair states that the novel is a love story built around a serious period in the history of Travancore.[109] The romance of Ananthapadmanabhan and Parukutty is presented as a supporting aspect to heroism in the novel, according to Dr. Poojapura Krishnan Nair.[110] Ayyappa Paniker states that the romance between Ananthapadmanabhan and Parukutty gives a soul and emotional angle to the historical and political themes of the novel.[111] According to Dr. George Irumbayam, the historical plot about power struggle between Marthanda Varma and rebels is presented as rich and active through the love story of Ananthapadmanbhan and Parukutty.[112] The emotional factor of the novel is further emphasized with another plot of romance involving Ananthapadmanabhan with the unrequited love of Zulaikha, there by making the love story to be a triangular one.[113] The story of Subhadra is also considered as a tragic love story, which strengthens the romantic aspects of the novel.[114] The love failures of Subhadra and Zulaikha aid in creating a favorable surrounding for the romantic aspects of the novel.[115] Dr. D. Benjamin remarks that the very first instance of romantic love is in this novel.[116] The longing of Parukutty for the return of her lover, Zulaikha's love failure are seen as reminiscences of romantic love, and latter is considered as foremost romantic heroine of Malayalam literature in romanticism.[117] The romantic aspects similar to that in Prometheus Unbound and in the apocalyptic poetry of William Blake are identified in the personality of Subhadra,[118] with which the character coveys a conflict-oriented complexity of multi-colored romanticism.[119]
Politics
The author's political interests are shown in allegorical form.[120] The novel presents the conspiracies, power struggle, internal agitations in the political history of Travancore,[121] and history provided the basic conflict and a suitable period.[122] Ayyappa Paniker points that novelist incorporated political and social undercurrents in the novel,[123] which discusses a conflict between the ruler and the ruled.[124] The social relevance lies in its questioning of the collateral rule of succession (Marumakkathayam) followed in Venad,[125] with the failed agitation of Nair-Thambi clans to acquire power from Kshatriyas.[126] In a way, the basic theme of novel is the eruption of revolt against the collateral succession through maternal nephews, and the subsequent suppression of the revolt.[127] Kalpatta Balakrishnan notes that the major theme of the novel is power struggle between the royal head and the kingship seekers,[128] and not a conflict between the ruled and the ruler.[129] The relevance of historical context is that, it is about the contest to acquire political power,[130] and the political significance is that it is about forceful acquisition of royal power,[131] and so novel is previewed as a political novel.[132] The freedom of thought that links the ruled ones to the power is presented through Mangoikkal Kuruppu’s impeccable criticism of kingship.[133] In the high-paced narrative, the character of Subhadra creates the lot of responses,[134] as she is the only political character in the novel,[135] even though the character Marthanda Varma represents royal lineage, royal power and royal justice, where as Thambies and Pillas are the riotous group who try to topple the traditional rule of succession in the kingdom.[136] Subhadra represents the patriotic code of conduct, with which she heads to defeat the attempts of rebel groups, and eventually sacrifices her life.[137] The open claim for the throne and the subsequent agitations lead the course of actions in the novel; which in result is to topple the rule of succession of the kingdom.[138] This no-compromise fight for the throne makes the novel rather a political history of power struggle in Venad.[139] Ayyappa Paniker states that the author raises the royal position through the novel, not the personality of the royal head[140] as the history in novel is the historical awareness constituted by the author.[141]
Conflicts
When the historical background is kept apart, the novel represents dramatic feud between the good and bad,[142] and concludes to the complete failure of sin and partial success of goodness in the end.[143] The novel presents the fight between respectable and despicable characters as that in devasura conflict.[144] According to K. M. Tharakan, though novelist tries to preach global philosophy about the final victory of goodness through various conflicts in the plot, serious effort is not taken to unveil the human mindset;[145] however, M. P. Paul mentions that author depicts peculiar skill in presenting minute emotions of human mind, in the novel.[146] Even though, the motif of the novel is politics,[147] the curiosity generated in the novel is through exceptional presentation of interpersonal issues.[148] The novel successfully comprises history of the state, interpersonal relationships, and social issues in the outset of imagination.[149] The character of Subhadra adds the investigative mood to the plot,[150] though she is considered as the foremost representation of tragedy in C. V. Raman Pillai's writings.[151] The amusement-thread of the novel is led by her secretive investigations similar to that of Sherlock Holmes.[152] The story of Subhadra is presented as a delightful tragedy, where she realizes her identity apart from the atrocities of her ancestors.[153]
N. Krishna Pillai and Prof. V. Anandakuttan Nair[lower-roman 4] state that the novel comprises three plots, among which the first one is the political theme about the power struggle between Marthanda Varma and opponents, the second is the romance of Ananthapadmanabhan and Parukutty, and the third is the tragedy of Subhadra.[155] Dr. M. G. Sasibhooshan states that the plot consists of four sections, which are the above three together with the adventures of Marthanda Varma, and concordance of these sections made the novel as an exceptional literary work.[156]
Style
Structure and characters
The novel is presented in twenty-six chapters describing the historical events, and each chapter is provided with an epigraph in the form of verses that implies the content of the respective chapter.[157] Prof. N. Krishna Pillai and Prof. V. Anandakuttan Nair point that the major events of the novel take place during Kollavarsham 903–904 (Gregorian Calendar: 1728), within a span of twenty-eight days, among which only eleven days are explicitly presented through the chapters from two to twenty-six. A night during the Kollavarsham 901 is presented in chapter one and a consolidated set of events until Kollavarsham 906 is narrated in the final chapter.[10] The novel switches to earlier periods, 1680s, 1703, 1720 while describing the backgrounds of Sundarayyan and Subhadra, marriage and breakup of Subhadra, and the relationship of Ananthapadmanabhan and Parukutty. Prof. Thumpamon Thomas[lower-roman 5] points that the narration is as small water streams that eventually form into a waterfall similar to the strands in a twisted rope made of coir.[159] The novel uses a particular style of using verses from ballads, puranas, and archaic literary works in descriptions and dialogs pertaining to the narrative situation,[160] among which usage of puranic quotes are comparatively less in the novel.[161] The major usages of quotes as epigraphs and inline ones are to indicate the plot of respective chapters or to point a particular behavior of characters,[162] and this is noted to be a style inspired from Sir Walter Scott,[163] as well as a manifestation of author's knowledge in the purans, legends, yesteryear ballads, and socio-cultural situation of Venad.[164] The story is narrated in a non-complex structure[165] by maintaining the momentum of heroic valor and action, while presenting three dimensional characters.[166] The unveiling of truth and mystery in the end through conversations is arguably a perfection of narration technique, according to C. Sreekanta Kurup.[167] The narration easily convinces that environment created in the novel and the personalities of bygone period are coherent to the situation and are memorable, historically.[168] The variance in the behavior of characters are shown through specific style of language used for particular characters, though the styles of language in description and narration are same, which are also noted to be light and heart-touching,[169] as well as beautiful and vigorous as that in conversations.[170] The characters are presented in a way that it is impossible to differentiate between fictional and historical ones.[171] N. Krishna Pillai notes that the major attributes of historical characters in the novel are specifically given by the author.[172] The presentation of novel is unique with the creation of unprecedented characters and not through structure complexity, notes Dr. D. Benjamin.[173] The presentation of characters in the novel is noted to be similar to the appearance of roles in Kathakali.[174] The novel is noted to be focused on multiple heroes and heroines.[175] Dr. Grorge Irumbayam states that the hero of the novel is Ananthapadmanabhan and Parukkutty is the heroine,[176] however also mentions that the novel has dual heroines due to the prominence of the character, Subhadra.[177] Dr. D. Benjamin notes that Marthanda Varma is the hero of novel.[178] Dr. Kalpatta Balakrishnan remarks that Ananthapadmanabhan and Parukutty are leads of the plot only when the story is a romance,[179] and as the story is based on the heir-ship of Marthanda Varma who leads the course of actions,[180] Ananthapadmanabhan is not the hero of the novel.[181]
Narration
The expansion of plot is noted to be through the stagnantly rising events,[182] without pushing back the narration on the behest of describing the struggles of characters.[183] The narration keeps the reader in suspense, with the rise of incidents out of incidents, leading to unexpected intricacies and complications with a veil of mystery until the final revelations.[184] The novel is presented with so many events, the arrangements of which create a feel that plot is long enough to fit in a book double the present size of the novel.[185] Pillai created a new style of his own for narration,[186] in which author presents different style of languages for different characters.[187] N. Krishna Pillai points that 64% of the novel is used for conversations of characters.[188] The narration style interspersed with fine pieces of humor, and lively flashes of wit[189] is stated as heartily attractive to the readers[190] due to its simplicity and sweetness; which also leads the reader through the events of novel at fast pace.[191] Dr. Raghavan Pillai notes that the language used in the novel is simple and is not overly mixed with Sanskrit, when tallying with author's later novels.[192] The language used in this novel does not create any resistance to reading, unlike in his later novels.[193] The style of narration in Dharmaraja is termed as KirmÄ«ravadhaÅ›aili,[194] adhering to author’s terminology, KiṟmÄ«ravadharÄ«ti[upper-alpha 7], where as the narrative style used in this novel is termed as Śī VÄ« Åšaili.[196] The author termed it as MÄrttÄṇá¸avaṟmmÄ-style,[upper-alpha 8] which he admitted to not able to continue in his later works.[198] The novel is noted for the usage of rhetorical embellishments in narration.[199] The narrative style comprises plenty of such embellishments as in a lyric, to form a rhetorical prose,[200] and this is noted to be author’s crookedness of narrative style.[201] The narrative style depicts a considerable level of the coherence between the consecutive sentences and in parts,[202] and presents notions adapted from performance arts such as Kathakali, Play, Kudiyattam, Mohiniyattam, and Bharatanatyam.[203] The dramatic language attained in the narration is through the abundant usages of passive voice and gender-neutral pronouns in objective case,[204] where as the archaic style of language is through usages of dative case.[205] The stylistic symbols among the specialties of language variance and author's idiolect marks the narration as a classic style.[206] The narration is presented in a manner that makes a reader to feel the accomplishment of wonders in the novel are inevitable.[207] The author successfully combines geographical structure of locality and suitable historical period with a legitimacy of day and night, and an accuracy as in an almanac, through his narrative style.[208]
The narrative style is noted to be of a global standard due to the extraordinary brilliance and greatness of subject as well as the presentation of human mindset in the novel.[209] The novel is identified as an incident-rich work interlaced with fast-paced events[165] during the period of a well-known historical personality, there by possessing the most required aspect of a historical novel.[210]
Intertextuality and allusions
The novel has a rich focus on intertextuality, making regular references and homages to both Indian subcontinent and Western literary traditions, histories and cultures. These sections provide a limited overview of the most important references and allusions in the novel and links to more thorough examinations of the allusions and intertextuality used throughout the novel.
Characters based on legends, history and real life
The novel presents characters with allusions to personalities from history, legends and personal life of author.

Events based on legends, history and politics
The novel mentions the pact with Madurai Nayaks made by king Rama Varma in Kollavarsham 901 at Tiruchirappalli to supply additional forces to Travancore for a fixed annual payment. It also mentions the lethal attempts on Marthanda Varma at Kalliyankattu temple, and also refers to similar attempts at Panathara, near the Ezhava house at Perunkadavila, as well as at the Nedumangad fort. The novel narrates an attempt by Velu Kuruppu and his men, when Marthanda Varma is aided by mad Channan to hide inside a tree implying the aid by a Channan plougher to hide and another attempt where Marthanda Varma hides inside the big hole within a jack tree at the Neyyattinkara Sree Krishna Swami Temple.[232] The novel makes references to lethal attempt on the little prince, Karthika Thirunal Rama Varma, in Kollavarsham 903[226] while the little prince and mother were heading from Trivandrum to Attingal.[225] One of the major events mentioned novel is the heirship claim by Thambi brothers through linear succession[230] against the collateral rule of succession followed in Venad.[233] This is followed by the treaty of Thambi brothers with foreign forces[229] to out-throw Marthanda Varma from power.[4] The novel presents the council of Ettuveettil Pillas[234] planning the murder attempt on Marthanda Varma,[235] as well as the coup d'état by Thambi brothers.[213][236] The accession of Marthanda Varma[237] in Kollavarsham 904[221] post the illness and demise of king Rama Varma is mentioned in the novel.[238][10] The novel also narrates the detention of Arumukham Pilla by Madurai forces.
The other events mentioned in the novel are the conquest of Desiganadu by Marthanda Varma post the accession and the Kalipankulam incident as a murder of five princes with the involvement of Ramanamadathil Pilla, as well as the death of Padmanabhan Thambi]] at the hands of Marthanda Varma's accomplices. The novel also refers to the attack of a Mukilan (a petty chieftain under Moghul emperor) in Travancore during Kollavarsham 853–855[239] when, a few families were converted as Mohammedians,[240] and the tragic death of Iravikutti Pilla in the war against forces of Thirumalai Nayak.[241]
Architecture and geography
The novel describes the setting as the kingdom of Venad under the rule of the king Rama Varma . The major events of the novel happen in and around Padmanabhapuram, the capital of the kingdom, and Thiruvananthapuram within Venad. Other kingdoms also have importance in the novel: traitorous criminals are exiled to Aralvaimozhi, (ĀṟÄá¹vaḻi), to the south-east.
Padmanabhapuram locations
Much of the novel is set in Padmanabhapuram Palace, Charottu palace, and Mangoikkal house. According to M. G. Sasibooshan, only the Darbhakulam mansion and the Kalkulam mansion of Padmanabhapuram Palace existed during the timeline of novel.[242] The novel describes the residence at the place of the present southern mansion on the northern side of the contemporary palace. Prince Marthada Varma halts there on his way to Boothapandi and later Padmanabhan Thambi camps there, after which fifty numbers of Channar people were executed at the palace compound.[242] Charottu palace is 2 miles (3.218688 km) north to Padmanabhapuram palace. Charottu palace is small, with only an enclosed quadrangular homestead (Nalukettu) and a cookhouse (Madapalli). The prince Marthanda Varma and his aide Parameswaran Pilla reside here after evading from Padmanabhan Thambi at Padmanabhapuram palace through the tunnel passage.[243] Dr. P. Venugopalan states that the closed tunnel passage between Padmanabhapuram palace and Charottu palace had access from the TÄikoá¹á¹Äraá¹ (Mother’s mansion) at the former palace, and cites its closed existence.[243]
Mangoikkal house is 2 Nazhika north to Charode. The house includes a grove, through which mad Channan reaches Mangoikkal house to rescue the prince Marthanda Varma. The novel also mentions the Mangoikkal kalari (martial arts school of Mangoikkal) is nearby which aid Mangoikkal Kuruppu and his nephews. The house name Mangoikkal is in reminiscence of house of Mangottu Assan at Mancode,[217] a village in Vilavancode taluk of Kanniyakumari district, and the house name of author’s patron Kesavan Thambi Karyakkar, Nangoikkal.[244]
In the novel, prince Marthanda Varma is cornered and trapped at Kalliancaud temple or KaḷḷiyankÄá¹á¹ukṣētraá¹, from where, he is later escaped as a Brahmin. The temple is Kalliancaud Sivan Kovil (located at 8°11'52"N 77°23'27"E). Ananthapadmanabhan is attacked and left for dead by Velu Kuruppu in Panchavankadu or Panchavan forest, a forest area on the way to Nagercoil from the residence of Ananthapadmanbhan’s mother near Kollavarsham 901. Prof. N. Krishna Pilla and Prof. V. Anandakuttan Nair state that Panchavankadu and Kalliyankadu are the same.[245]
Thiruvananthapuram locations
The novel describes Thiruvananthapuram as the capital of the kingdom, but Dr. P. Venugopalan describes this as historically inaccurate, because the capital hadn't yet changed from Padmanabhapuram to Thiruvananthapuram.[246] The novel includes four major locations in Thiruvananthapuram: Thiruvananthapuram fort, Subhadra's house, Killi river, and Manacaud.
Thekkekoyikkal or the southern mansion within the fort is home to prince Marthanda Varma.[247] In the novel, Velu Kuruppu tries to attack Marthada Varma, while the latter is on his way to the mansion, but is foiled by Shankarachar.[248] The novel mentions another location within the fort, the house Chembakassery. Scholars debate Chembakassery's historicity: P. K. Parameswaran Nair assumes that Chembakassery house never existed,[249] where as the article AnantapadmanÄbhan nÄá¹Äruá¹ tiruvitÄá¹kūṟ niṟmmitiyuá¹ states that the house existed and the author C. V. Raman Pillai was familiar with it.[250] The fort present in the novel was later rebuilt during Kollavarsham 922–928 and eventually demolished after the independence of India;[251] preserved ruins can be found at the east fort in Thiruvananthapuram.[252]
Subhadra's house is a few blocks north to the royal passage at Andiyirakkam.[253] Manacaud or Manakadu is referred in the novel as the place where Pathan merchants are camped.[254] Fighters of Mangoikkal also camp there, where their final confrontation with Thambi brothers and Ettuveettil Pillas take place.[255]
Sociocultural practices
The novel presents that practices of Indian traditional medicine and Unani traditional medicine were prevailed in Venad during the timeline of the story.[256] The novel states that Hakkim tried a kind of narcoanalysis on Ananthapadmanabhan after getting him drugged, to know the whereabouts of the latter however it did not yield any results.[257][258] The novel refers to astrological practices, such as praÅ›naá¹ vayppÅ,[upper-alpha 11][260] and Natal astrology, which is referred when Shanku Assan says to Parukutty that chothirisham or jyothisham will not go wrong.[261][262]
The novel remarks about superstitious customs prevail among the hindu religion followers such as Ūá¹á¹Å or KÄḷiyÅ«á¹á¹Å, PÄá¹á¹Å,[263] Uruvaá¹ VaypÅ,[264] Amman Koá¹a,[265] CÄvÅ«á¹á¹Å,[265] UccinakÄḷi SÄ“va.[266] The novel mentions that the people at palace opts to conduct occult acts by clergies, priests and magicians to extend the lifetime of the king. Thirumukhathu Pilla goes for paranormal retrocognition through Mashinottam,[upper-alpha 12] an Indian clairvoyant practice, to confirm about the rumors about the death of his son, Ananthapadmanabhan.[268] Velu Kuruppu mentions about the sorcery done by a namboothiripad of Akavoor family[upper-alpha 13] by evoking protection on his armor shield by the incantation of seventy million Dhanwantharam, a set of hymns offered to Dhanvantari in order to safeguard from any ill luck.[270]
The novel presents Beeram Khan as a converted Muslim, who was a Nair and ex-spouse of Subhadra; he married Fathima after proselytization to Islam, as he became a dependent of the Hakkim's family. In the novel, at one point of time Hakkim intended to proselytize Ananthapadmanabhan to Islam with the support of Usman Khan while the latter was unconscious as being drugged, but could not do so because Zulaikha opposed the act.[271][272] The novel presents the miscegenation between a Shasthri (an aryan race) and a lady of Marvar caste (a dravidian race); whom are the parents of Sundarayyan and Kondanki.[273]
In the novel, Padmanabhan Thambi is presented as philanderer, who keeps relationships with the paramours Kamalam, Sivakami, the mistress at the seventh house, and the unnamed female prostitute at Kottar.[274] Subhadra mentions that he was after her since she was ten years old. So, Ananthapadmanabhan opposes the agreement of his father to the marriage proposal for his younger sister from Padmanabhan Thambi and when the proposal is cancelled,[275] an enraged Sundarayyan says to Ananthapadmanabhan to keep an incestuous relationship with his younger sister;[276] to which Ananthapadmanabhan makes a racist remark against Sundarayyan that "thÄn maṟavanaá¹Å" (hey! you are a Maravar). This further enrages Sundarayyan to favor the attack on Anathapadmanabhan at Panchavankadu, which starts the series of events in the novel.[277]
The Venad royal family follows the heirship through Marumakkathayam, collateral descent through maternal nephews. In the novel, Sundarayyan points that the above system is opposed to the common system of heirship through Makkathayam, which is lineal descent through sons, and propose to raise the claim of throne for the elder son of the king Rama Varma, Padmanabhan Thambi, who at one point of time conveys his worry to Sunadarayyan about the latter system, which will bring his younger brother Raman Thambi against him. In the novel, Ettuveettil Pillas pledge to make Padmanabhan Thambi as the next king by taking lethal actions against the prince Marthanda Varma, the legal heir to the kingdom,[278] even though Ettuveettil Pillas follow the system of matrilineality with avuncular paterfamilias.[279] Dr. P. V. Velayudhan Pillai[lower-roman 6] points that some of the Ettuveettil Pillas are of Vellalar clan, who follow Makkathayam.[281]
Writers and literature
The novel explicitly mentions Thunchaththu Ezhuthachan, P. Shangoony Menon, and also refers Shankaracharyar as kÄ“raḷēcÄrakaṟttÄvÅ,[282] which means the author of customs in Kerala, Venmani Achhan Nambudiripad as kavikulÅttaá¹san (one at the crest of poets clan) and compares his lifetime to that of Sundarayyan.[283]
Story-line adaptation
The novel uses the references of Ettuveettil Pillas in the Sree Veera Marthandavarmacharitham Aattakatha, to form the characters and also uses the four-line verse about the same as epigraph to the eleventh chapter. The character of Sundarayyan in the novel is similar to the character of Pichakappalli in this Aattakatha.[219] The situations in which Marthanda Varma escapes the attempts on his life by Thambi's men are in line with similar events mentioned in Marthandamahathmyam, a lyrical work written as a Kilippattu based on the stories about Marthanda Varma.[219] The attack at Mangoikkal house by Padmanabhan Thambi's men in the novel is similar to the attack and eventual burning of Mangottu Assan’s house in Ottan Katha, one of the ballads of Venad based on the stories about Marthanda Varma.[216] Ivanhoe by Sir Walter Scott is considered as the most influential work in the development of Marthandavarma.[284] Like in Ivanhoe, the first chapter of the novel opens with the description of a forest, and every chapter opens with an epigraph similar to those in Scott’s books.[285] M. P. Paul claims that the characters Marthanda Vama, Ananthapadmanabhan, Chulliyil Chadachi Marthandan Pilla are based on the characters from Ivanhoe, even though those are based on the history and legends of Venad.[286]
M. P. Paul also claims that the situations involving either of mad Channan, Subhadra or Thirumukhathu Pilla are similar to situations in King Lear by William Shakespeare, the character of Shanku Assan is similar to that of Dominie Sampson in Guy Mannering by Sir Walter Scott.[286] Dr. M. Leelavathy points that the character of Subhadra is prototyped from the Flora McIvor of Waverley by Sir Walter Scott.[287]
- Neelikatha (subplot)
- According to Dr. P. Venugopalan, the story of Panchavankattu Neeli (PañcavankÄá¹á¹unÄ«li, lit. Neeli of Pachavan forest) in the third chapter of novel is a combination of stories form the ballads Panchavankattu Neelikatha (PañcavankÄá¹á¹unÄ«likatha) and Neelikatha (NÄ«likatha, lit. story of Neeli).[288] Dr. Thikkurissi Gangadharan states that KaḷḷiyankÄttunÄ«li (Neeli of Kalliyancaud) is changed to PañcavankÄá¹á¹unÄ«li by the author of the novel.[289]

The novel mentions the languages, Malayalam, Tamil and Hindustani, among which the former one is used primarily for the narration with the adopted words from Tamil, Sanskrit, English, Hindustani, Persian and a conversation in a substitution cipher, Mulabhadra.
Malayalam is the primary language used in the novel, Sanskrit words are extensively used in the novel such as khÄdyapÄ“yalÄ“hyabhÅjya[308] (Sanskrit: खादà¥à¤¯à¤ªà¥‡à¤¯à¤²à¥‡à¤¹à¥à¤¯à¤à¥‹à¤œà¥à¤¯, ഖാദàµà´¯à´ªàµ‡à´¯à´²àµ‡à´¹àµà´¯à´àµ‹à´œàµà´¯, lit. chew-able, drinkable, lick-able, and eatable), tÄ“jaḥpuñjaá¹[309] (Sanskrit: तेजःपà¥à¤žà¥à¤œ, തേജഃപàµà´žàµà´œ, lit. heap of ardor). Tamil words and prepositions are used in the statements of Shanku Assan, Anantham, Mangoikkal Kuruppu and in the narrations, among which, the Tamil word nÄyaki (Tamil: நாயகி, lit. spouse[feminine], Malayalam: നായകി) in the first edition of the novel is been replaced with the adapted one from sanskrit, nÄyikÄ (Sanskrit: नायिका, lit. the lady who leads) as the malayalam version nÄyika (Malayalam: നായിക, lit. heroine) in the second edition.[310] The novel uses the word caittÄn[311] which is a form of Hindustani word Å¡aitÄn (Hindustani: शैतान, شیطون, lit. devil)[upper-alpha 14], and also uses the word bahadūṟ,[312] a form of Hindustani word bahÄdur (Hindustani: बहादà¥à¤°, بهادر, lit. brave)[upper-alpha 15]. The novel makes a malayalam usage for the shawl used by Thirumukhathu Pilla as sÄlva,[313] which is analogous to the English word shawl and the Persian version shÄl (Persian: شال‎‎), and for the meaning of guard while referring to the posture of Chembakassery Mootha Pilla at the door of Parukutty's room, the novel uses a word gÄá¹á¹[314] akin to the obsolete form gard.

- Ambiguous usage – The novel presents the ambiguous usages of the term nazhika (Malayalam: നാഴിക, nÄḻika), as a unit of measure for time and as a unit of measure for length.

Raghavan Pillai.[383] Prof. K. M.
