Detailed Solution

Hagiographies are related to the Bhakti movement.
The hagiography is a body of literature that explores religious saints' lives and devotion. Hagiographic literature includes biographies of saintly monks, bishops, and princes and reports of miracles involving saints' graves, relics, icons, or sculptures. It also includes the actions of the martyrs. During the Chola and Pandya reigns in the eleventh and the twelfth century, the poems of the Bhakti saints were collected. Additionally, the Alvars and Nayanars' hagiographies and religious biographies were written. These works are still used today as primary references for the Bhakti tradition.
