Detailed Solution

The above statement is true. Early Bengali literature can be divided into two kinds: Literature obligated to Sanskrit and Literature independent of Sanskrit.
Literature bound to Sanskrit incorporates translations of the Sanskrit epics, the Mangal Kavyas, and bhakti literature, just like the biographies of Chaitanyadeva, the leader of the Vaishnava bhakti movement Mangalakavyas include promising poems addressing local Gods. Literature independent of Sanskrit includes Nath literature, just like the songs of Maynamat and Gopichandra, stories associated with the worship of Dharma Thakur, and fairy tales, folk tales, and chants. These were passed around orally, making it impossible to date them precisely. They were especially well-liked in eastern Bengal, where Brahmanical influence was not as strong.
