  The Story of Manu, by poet Allasani Peddana, is the definitive literary monument of Telugu civilization and a powerful embodiment of the imperial culture of Vijayanagara, the last of the great premodern south Indian states. It is a book about kingship at the time of Krishnadevaraya, who was a close friend and patron of the poet.
