Detailed Solution

The writer of The Folklore of Southern India was Natesa Sastri.
Indian nationalists started recording folk songs and legends from bards in the late nineteenth century as they travelled through the countryside. These stories portrayed a realistic image of a traditional culture that had suffered harm from outside influences.Nevertheless, thiss folk tradition had to be preserved if one wanted to rediscover their feeling of national identity and historical pride. In Madras, Natesa Sastri released The Folklore of Southern India, a huge four-volume collection of Tamil folktales. Folklore, in his opinion, is a form of national literature and "the most reliable depiction of people's true views and qualities."
