Dikshitar Life and times

Post by HarishankarK »

Namastey
I am looking for any material on life and times of Dikshitar
Other than the book biography by Sri TLVenkataraman Iyer is there any other internet resoruces / sites /books etc available that throw light on Dikshitar his ancestors, family, his life and times and disciples etc

Just to clarify I am NOT looking for his compositions, notations, meaning of sahithya etc - I have all that already -abundantly available in internet

More interested in his personality, life history etc

Any suggestions would be very much appreciated

thank you
Harishankar
