The correct option is B Petrarch
Petrarch laid the foundation to Renaissance humanism through his writings, and he came to be known as the father of the Renaissance. Taking a cue from Petrarch, a lot of writers began writing on various aspects of humankind, ranging from the human body, voice, and day-to-day lives.
