Barnaparichay [note 1] is a Bengali primer written by 19th century Indian social reformer Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar.[1][2] It was first published in 1855. This is considered as "The Most Influential Primer of Bengal".[3] The primer had two parts.[note 2] This reflected Vidayasagar's knowledge, expertise and background as a Sanskrit scholar.[4] The success of the first part of the primer inspired Vidyasagar to work on the second part.[5] It remained an important source for teaching Bengali. This standardized the Bengali alphabet.
