          The first ever demand for higher education in the madras Presidency was voiced forth in a public address to the Right Honourable Lord John 
        Elphinstone G.C.H., Governor of Madras signed by 70,000 native inhabitants when the  Governor in Council was contemplating “some effective and 
        liberal measures for the establishment of an improved system of national education.” The public petition which was presented by the then Advocate 
        Gereral,  Mr. George Norton on 11.11.1839 underlined the need for an English college in the city of Madras. Following this, Lord Elphinstone evolved a plan 
        for the establishment of a Central Collegiate Institution or an ‘University'. This University had twin Departments (1) High School for the cultivation of 
        English literature, regional language, philosophy and science, (2) College for providing instruction in the higher branches of literature, philosophy and 
        science. 
          The University Board was constituted in January 1840 with Mr. George Norton as its President. This was the precursor of the present Presidency College, 
        Chennai. However, a systematic educational policy for India was formulated only after 14 years by the historic dispatch of 1854 (Sir Charles Wood's 
        Education Dispatch), which pointed out the rationale for “Creating a properly articulated system of education from the primary school to the University”. 
        The Dispatch recommended the establishment in the Universities of Professorships “For the purposes of the delivery of lectures in various branches of 
        learning including vernacular as well as classical languages”. As a sequel, the University of Madras, organized on the model of London University, was 
                         th 
        incorporated on 5  September 1857 by an Act of the Legislative   Council of India. 
          As such, the University of Madras is one of the three post Universities of modern and has been serving the cause of higher education in India since its 
        inception. It is now the mother and grandmother of various universities of South India.

     Apart  from  teaching  and  research  activities,  the  University  started  publishing  activities  around  1900.  Among  its  noteworthy early 
    publications are: Pope's English translation of The Thiruvasagam (1900), K.V. Rangaswami Aiyangar's Considerations on Some Aspects of 
    Ancient Indian Polity (1916, 1920, 1935), K.N. Sivaraja Pillai's Agestiya in Tamil Land (1927), C. Achyuta Menon's edited works Kuchela 
    Vritham and Krishna Vilasam (1929), S.S. Surynarayana Sastri's translated (into English) and edited work of Appayya Dikshita's Sivadvaida-
    Nirmaya (1929). 
     
     The Publications Division continues to be a hallmark of the University of Madras, publishing scholarly works of its faculty, endowment 
    lectures of eminent invited scholars, translations, dictionaries, journals, syllabi, etc., in nine languages in various disciplines. The University of 
    Madras Publications include more than 600 titles. 
     A number of publications projects are on the anvil and this catalogue with the titles available and its price  will continue to increase its 
    listing in the years to come.
