It seems the greatest contribution to the bhakti movement was from the works / philosophy of Ramanuja, as indicated below.

Ramanuja (b. 1027) had a great influence on the successive theistic movements. Consider, for example, what Dr. S. Radhakrishnan (famous author and professor of philosophy at Oxford University during 1920's) had to say in this regard (Indian Philosophy,Vol. 2, ISBN 01563820-4, p. 670):


"The influence of Ramanuja is visible throughout the later history of Hinduism. The movements of Madhva, Vallabha, Caitanya, Ramananda, Kabir and Nanak, and the reform organizations of Brahmoism are largely indebted to Ramanuja's theistic idealism."
