Vidyapati
Vidyapati (1352? ? 1448?), also known as the Maithil Kokil Vidyapati (Vidyapati, the cuckoo of Maithili), was an Indian poet. He was born in the village of Bisapi, Madhubani district, Bihar state, India. The name Vidyapati is derived from two Sanskrit words, Vidya (knowledge) and Pati (master), connoting thereby, a man of knowledge. Vidyapati's position as a poet and maker of language has been described as "analogous to that of Dante in Italy and Chaucer in England."
