Ketana wrote the following works: •
Dasa-kumara-charitamu is a Telugu translation of
Dandin's
Dasha-kumara-charita. •
Vijnaneshvaramu or
Vijnaneshvariyamu is a legal
dharmashastra text based on
Mitakshara,
Vijnaneshvara's commentary on
Yajnavalkya Smrti. Like the other
dharmashastra texts, Ketana adheres to the
varna system, treating Brahmins and men favourably. He highlights the importance of
Brahmins in governance, and recommends that the rulers follow the advice of the Brahmins knowledgeable about the shastras. •
Andhra-bhasha-bhushanamu ("Ornament of the Andhra Language") is a work on grammar. This was likely the earliest
Telugu grammar.
Andhra-shabda-chintamani, purported to be an earlier work attributed to
Nannaya, is a fictitious work, and the sutras attributed to Nannaya in this work are likely from a later period, with their final version dating to the 17th century. == References ==
