In 1316, the rise of vernacular literature in France gained momentum, with more works being written in the French language. This shift allowed literature to reach a broader audience, moving away from Latin, which had dominated scholarly writing. The increased accessibility of literature contributed to a flourishing of poetic forms and themes in the vernacular.

The rise of vernacular literature in France encouraged poets to experiment with language and form, leading to the development of new poetic styles. Poets like Guillaume de Lorris and Jean de Meun began to write in French, making their works more relatable to the common people.
