From the late medieval period on, Chaucer has been considered the \u201cfather or English poetry.\u201d Indeed, his Middle English verse electrified the day with its satire of English society. Writing in the later 14th century, he caused ripples with his bold move to write in the vernacular English instead of the expected literary Latin.
