Dear community member,
Recently, we have published the fourth and final part of our blog series 'English Literature Throughout History: A Brief Overview'. In this series, we travel through ten literary periods in English literature, starting from 450 AD until now. You'll learn about historical events, their influence on literature at the time, and what authors were active in which literary Period. If that sounds like something you want to learn about, I highly recommend reading the series below :-)
Here is a list of all the blogs in this series, so you can learn about the history of English literature at your own pace:
- Blog 1: covering the Old English Period, the Middle-English Period, and the Renaissance Period
- Blog 2: covering the Romantic Period and the Victorian Period
- Blog 3: covering the Edwardian Period and the Georgian Period
- Blog 4: covering the Modern Period and the Postmodern Period
Have you ever read any work by Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, Geoffrey Chaucer, William Shakespeare, Mary Shelley, or any of the authors mentioned in the blogs? If so, I'd love to hear what that experience was like!
