Francesco Petrarca (July 20, 1304 – July 19, 1374), known in English as Petrarch, was an Italian scholar, poet and one of the earliest Renaissance humanists. Petrarch is often popularly called the "Father of Humanism". Based on Petrarch's works, and to a lesser extent those of Dante Alighieri and Giovanni Boccaccio, Pietro Bembo in the 16th century created the model for theactual Italian language, later endorsed by the Accademia della Crusca. His sonnets were admired and imitated throughout Europe during the Renaissance and became a model for lyrical poetry. With this form of love poetry, Petrarch had such a great influence on European poetry of the Middle Ages that a new style was named for him, Petrarchism, which lived late into modern times and influenced, among othertraditions, the German Minnesang. Petrarch was also known for being one of the first people to call the Middle Ages the Dark Ages.

Biography:

Francesco Petrarca was bornin Arezzo, Toscana, on the 20th of July of the 1304. His father,Ser Petracco, a lawyer, held a post of notary in the Florentine Rolls Court of the Riformagioni; but, having espoused the same cause as Dante during the quarrels of the Blacks and Whites, Petrarch was expelled from Florence by that decree of the 27th of January 1302 which condemned Dante to lifelong exile. With his wife he tookrefuge in the Ghibelline township of Arezzo; and it was here, on the very night when his father, in company with other members of the White party, made an unsuccessful attempt to enter Florence by force, the Francesco first saw the light. He did not remain long in his birthplace. His mother, having obtained permission to return from banishment, settled at Incisa, a little village on the Arno aboveFlorence, in February 1305. Here Petrarch spent seven years of boyhood, acquiring that pure Tuscan idiom which afterwards he used with such consummate mastery in ode and sonnet. Here too, in 1307, his brother Gherardo was born. In 1312 Petracco set up a house for his family at Pisa; but soon afterwards, finding no scope there for the exercise of his profession as jurist, he removed them all in 1313 toAvignon.

Francesco Petrarch received his education in the French next cities of Carpentras, Bologna and Montpellier. In 1312 he returned to Italy to finish his studies of laws in the University of Bologna, he also studied in Montepellier, but he never finished his studies, during his instance in Montepellier he had the chance to experience the art of the poetic, what awakened his interest inRoman poetry and literature. After the death of his father on 1327, Francesco Petrarch returned to Avignon and decided to dedicate to study and to literature.

In the 6th of April of 1327 occurred an event that would change his life when he first saw Laura ( possibly Laura de Noves, c. 1308-1348) an idealized woman whose name he was to immortalize in his lyrics and who inspired him with a...
