Timeline
Narayanan is known for his Brahmin Oligarchy model and he was one of the many critics of Burton Stein's "segmentary state" model for the Chola Empire. With Veluthat, Narayanan proposed that Bhakti movement brought together "kings, Brahmanas and the common people" in harmony between 6th and 10th-century, but more as an "illusion of equality", writes Karashima. Others scholar have proposed different views, noting certain defects in his model.
According to T. K. Rajalakshmi writing in Frontline in 2001 – a news weekly in India, Narayanan is a specialist in ancient history and "a believer in Hindutva to the extent that he is a Hindu and an inheritor of a great tradition". Though he is close to BJP, states Rajalakshmi, he is not a hardliner. Narayanan stated that "there cannot be history without differences".
His Ph.D. thesis was published two decades later as Perumals of Kerala in 1996 by Calicut University Press. It empirically reconstructed the history of Kerala during the Ceras between 800 and 1124 CE in a meticulous exercise, states Rajan Gurukkal. His study relies on interpreting inscriptions and the literature from that period. Arthur Llewellyn Basham praised his work as "one of the ablest and most thorough Indian theses I have examined".
