Geoffrey Chaucer

Geoffrey Chaucer (1343-1400) was an English poet known as the "Father of English literature." He is best known for his work "The Canterbury Tales," a collection of stories told by pilgrims on their way to Canterbury. Chaucer's writing style combined humor, satire, and realism, reflecting the social and political issues of his time. His works helped establish English as a literary language and influenced future generations of writers. Chaucer's contributions to literature include popularizing the use of vernacular English in poetry and creating memorable characters that continue to resonate with readers today.
