“I am inspired by the speeches of Thamizharuvi Maniyan, Suki Sivam and Sudha Seshayyan,” says the resident of Arumbakkam, who plans to recite these speeches in government colleges and at training programmes. To fulfil this dream and to channelise his love for literature, he started writing. With an educational background in history and law, Marimuttu’s aim to become a professor and educate the younger generation was unfulfilled. The author has previously written two books – Silappathigarathil Sirappana Vazhviyal Sinthanaigaland Arivupasikku Arumaiyana Sinthanaigal. Gandhi’s ‘The Great Trial’ speech and Kevin Rudd’s apology to ‘aborigines’ in Australia are the other highlights. Seven women speakers are also celebrated in the book. Queen Elizabeth’s statesmanship and Pope John Paul’s approach to religion are some of the messages the author has conveyed. The book begins with Michelle Obama’s speech and ends with that of Barrack Obama, as an appreciation of their oratorical skills.

“The book is aimed at instilling values in students and I have chosen speeches that have changed the destiny of the world,” says 63-year-old Marimuthu, who worked on the translation for close to a year.Ī total of 41 speeches of international leaders and heads of nations, from the 1600s, find a place in the book.

The book is a translation of famous speeches delivered by well-known personalities. Marimuthu has launched his third book Great Speeches of Great Men that saved Humanity ( Manuda Amaidhikku Vazhivagutha Perarigyarin Peruraigal).
