Francesco Petrarch is recognized as the 'father of humanism' due to his educational program that emphasized the study of classical texts and the humanities. He played a vital role in shifting the focus of education from theology to the value of human experience and achievement through literature and philosophy. His works and ideas laid the groundwork for the broader humanist movement during the Renaissance.
