Biography

Jayaseelan was born on July 27, 1940 to K. R. Achuthan, a lawyer and Umbooli, a school teacher and the eldest daughter of Mithavaadi Krishnan.[1] His early education was at Basel Mission School and the Government Ganapat School, Feroke after which he did his college education at Farook College and Madras Christian College to earn an MA (1960) and MLitt (1963) in English literature.[2] Subsequently, he secured a doctoral degree in English literature from Visva-Bharati University in 1970. His career as an English teacher spanned across several institutions such as Madras Christian College, PSG College of Arts and Science, Coimbatore, St. Thomas College, Thrissur and Regional college of Education, Bhopal, till he settled at the Central Institute of English Foreign Languages (CIEFL) as a lecturer in 1970 and by the time he retired from service, CIEFL had been upgraded as the present-day The English and Foreign Languages University (EFLU).[3] In between, he earned a master's degree in linguistics from Lancaster University in 1973 and a doctoral degree from Simon Fraser University in 1980. He continues his association past his superannuation with EFLU as an adjunct faculty of linguistics.[1]

Jayaseelan is married to Amritavalli, an academic, co-author of one of his books and his colleague at EFLU and the couple has two children, Annapoorna and Maithreyi.[1]

Legacy

Jayaseelan's poetry is noted for its intense philosophical overtone, often presented in a witty manner.[2] The first of his poetry anthologies was published in 1986 under the title, Aarohanam. This was followed by a number of anthologies which include Kavithakal (1997), Jayaseelante Kavithakal (2008), Viswaroopan (2013)[4] and Aamayum Kaalavum (2015).[5] His contributions in linguistics are marked by a leaning towards the generative grammar of Noam Chomsky.[2] He has published many essays on linguistics[6] and Parametric studies in Malayalam syntax is one of his studies published under CIEFL Akshara series.[7] He serves as an editorial board member of the Linguistic Analysis, an international journal published by the University of Washington and dedicated to publishing contents in phonology, morphology, syntax and semantics.[8] He is also an editorial board member of Syntax, a Wiley journal.[9]
