from
Wikipedia
Francesco Petrarca ( 20 July 1304 – 19 July 1374 ), known in English as Petrarch, was an Italian scholar and poet, and one of the earliest humanists.
In the 16th century, Pietro Bembo created the model for the modern Italian language based on Petrarch's works, as well as those of Giovanni Boccaccio, and, to a lesser extent, Dante Alighieri.
Petrarch's sonnets were admired and imitated throughout Europe during the Renaissance and became a model for lyrical poetry.
