INTRODUCTION There are as many reasons to study literature as there are to study man. Alongside with other forms of art literature participates in the mighty task of rendering people’s lives, minds and hearts. Human experience contained in the works of literature is a vast continuum of information from which we can benefit in various ways. We read books for educational purposes, intellectual training, escape and enjoyment. We also read books because they can help us better understand what we are. For centuries people have accumulated and verified knowledge of man, the best works of literature being the quintessence of all intellectual and spiritual achievements of their time. Studying History of Literature we can observe culture in progress. Referring every single literary work to a particular epoch we can interpret its message in a broader context of human evolution. We can observe the development of literary forms against the historical, social, ideological, religious and all other kinds of changes. This book was designed to highlight a complex approach to the study of history of English literature that would give students of each literary epoch and encourage their appreciation. It covers the 2nd half of the curriculum and offers an overview of the English literature from the end of the 18th century till the end of the 20th century. The periods of English literature are presented chronologically. The general framework of each section follows a similar pattern. It includes an outline of historical and literary context, information on authors’ life and work, texts for critical analysis, questions and tasks.
