  Marathi literature - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Marathi literature started with religious writings by the saint-poets belonging to Mahanubhava and Warkari sects.
Mahanubhava saints used prose as their main medium, while Warkari saints preferred poetry as the medium.
The early saint-poets were Mukundaraj who wrote Vivekasindhu, Dnyaneshwar (1275-1296) (who wrote Bhawarthadeepika, which is popularly known as Dnyaneshwari, a 9000-couplets long commentary on the Bhagavad Gita) and Namdev.

In Kannada (Kanarese) from the 10th century, and later in Gujarati from the 13th century, the first truly indigenous works are Jain romances; ostensibly the lives of Jain saints, these are actually popular tales based on Sanskrit and Pali themes.
