Here is a hint to help your search.The first is a biographer; The second and the third are chronologically earliest among the Azhwars in the hagiology of Azhwars; The last one is the most renowned Sri Vaishnava Achaarya.You have to mention not only the names of the Authors but also the precise Paasurams and the name of the respective Prabnadhams in which these references occur.You may send your answers to ramanbil and NOT to Sri Ranga Sri group so as to reach usON OR BEFORE 7th February 2010.Wishing you all the best.DasohamAnbil Ramaswamy
