412_ Margazhi Festival


Today's topic is Margazhi Festival.

The Tamil month of 'Margazhi' (December) is a sacred month of the Hindus. In Chennai, it can rightly be denoted as the Music and Dance season. It is the time when Carnatic music concerts and Classical dance fests happen in grandeur at various Sabhas and halls of the city. 

The Margazhi festival was started way back in 1927, as an event to commemorate with the founding of Madras Music Academy in the month of December.

Happy Drawing :)

The Taxicab Incident









This is known as the taxicab incident. G H Hardy, Ramanujan's mentor/friend at Cambridge, visited him at the hospital and the rest of the story is in the picture above.

Ramanujan's intellect was so sharp even in sickness - almost on his deathbed.

On hearing this, John E Littlewood is said to have remarked, "Every positive integer is one of Ramanujan's personal friends."

The name of Robert Kanigel's book on Ramanujan is "The Man Who Knew Infinity".
