Rabindranath Tagore was born at Jorasanko Thakurbari in Calcutta. His father was the Brahmo Guru Debendranath Tagore (1817–1905) [48] and his mother was Saradasundari Devi (1826–185). [49] Rabindranath was the fourteenth child of his parents. . [51] [52]
Rabindranath had a miscarriage at the age of only fourteen in 175. [22] So, being a child of a rich family, Rabindranath spent his childhood under the discipline of servants. His education was arranged. [56] As a child, Rabindranath was more comfortable wandering in the natural environment at Jorasanko's house or in the garden houses of Bolpur and Panihati.

[60] [61] These are Michael Madhusudan's "Critique of Meghnadabadha Kavya", Vanusingh Tagore's verses and two stories called "Vikharini" and "Karuna". Of these, the words of Vanusingh Tagore are particularly significant. These poems are written in the style of "Vanusingh" Bhanita in imitation of the verses about Radha-Krishna.
