"The Short Oxford History of English Literature" provides, in a single volume, a comprehensive beginner's guide to the literature of the British Isles from the Anglo-Saxon period to the present day.

Examinations of key writers and works include Anselm, Chaucer, Spenser, Bunyan, Swift, Johnson, Dickens, and D. H. Lawrence; and are combined with analysis of the impact on literature of contemporay political, social, and economic developments.
