Geoffrey Chaucer (c. 1343-1400) was an English writer, poet, and civil servant, known for being the author of The Canterbury Tales, one of the most important works of medieval English literature. He was born in London and had a diverse life, working as a public official, diplomat, and court member. His most notable work, The Canterbury Tales, is a collection of stories told by a group of pilgrims on their journey to the tomb of Saint Thomas Becket. Chaucer is considered the "father of English literature" for his innovative use of vernacular English instead of Latin or French, making his work accessible to a broader audience. His legacy endures in the richness of his characters and the depth of his social critique.
