Ramprasad's humour is also less objectionable.
In style and characterization Ramprasad is inferior to his predecessor but in poetic fancy he is undoubtedly superior. The influence of Bharatchandra is clearly noticeable. His Vidyasundar was written some time in the sixth or seventh decade of the century. "Ramprasad Sen belonged to Kumarhatta, a place about 25 miles from Calcutta up the Hooghly. In Bengal, Ramprasad Sen was a pioneer of this genre. The genre itself can be traced back to the mystic tradition that has found articulation in, for example, Sufi thought –- the dervishes as ‘mad’ men –- though a feminization of the Mystic is something that is special to Kali. Trailokyanath was one of several 19th-century literary men - Dwijendralal Ray, Nabai Moyra and Kalidas Bhattacharya were some of the others - who experimented with Shyama sangeet as a poetic form. This is the beginning of a famous Kali-song (Shyama sangeet in Bengali) written by Trailokyanath Sanyal a hundred or so years ago. I need no more truck with knowing or reason
