There are similarities in plot, setting, and characters and also dissimilarities in the purpose of writing. History aims to inform or educate whereas fiction aims to entertain. In The Evolution of the English Novel, Stoddard states that fiction is the underlying basis of the novel, whereas fact is an underlying basis of history (89). New historicism provides equal weightage to the literary text and the non-literary text. This paper presents a parallel study of Indian chozha history with the fiction Ponniyin Selvan written by Kalki. This paper aims to present how Kalki Krishnamurthy appropriates the strategy of New Historicism to revise the history of the chozha kingdom. It focuses on that particular period's cultural, political and social context. In the framework of New Historicism, the researcher tries to fix Kalki's Ponniyin Selvan to delineate how it blurs the distinction between history and literature

Structuralism was born as a reaction to modernist 'alienation and despair'. Therefore, it is a way of looking for reality in the relationship of the humans. As a philosophy and linguistic analysis, it lends itself to the empirical enterprise. The structuralist interconnects the language system and the social system. Saussurean structural linguistics defines language as a system of relations. Saussurean concept of 'Langue and Parole' aligns with Noam Chomsky's 'Competence and Performance'. Saussurean language as a system of relations is conveyed through signs and semiology as a science, studies the life of signs within the society. From Saussurean linguistics, Claude Levi-Strauss launches into structural anthropology. For his analysis, he uses marriage rules, cultural behaviours, methods of cooking, totemic myths and so on. From these cultural constructs in general, he institutes structural anthropology braced up by incest, its prohibition rules and analysis of myths. The legends of Holy Grail and Buddha too come in handy to prove his claim. To conclude, through a semantic system of structural anthropology, he proclaims that the institution of marriage becomes a system of communication, a linguistic system.
