Guillaume de Machaut (1300 – 1377) was a French poet and composer of late Medieval music who was the central figure of the Ars nova style. Immensely influential, Machaut is regarded as the most important composer and poet of the 14th century and is the first significant composer whose name is known. Daniel Leech-Wilkinson called him «the last great poet who was also a composer», and well into the 15th century Machaut’s poetry was greatly admired and imitated by other poets, including Geoffrey Chaucer.
