Paperback. History of English Literature: A Textbook for University Students offers a comprehensive and chronologically organised survey of the English literary tradition, from the Anglo-Saxon oral culture of the fifth century to the digitally inflected fiction and poetry of the twenty-first. Written for intermediate and advanced university students, it combines rigorous scholarly grounding with clear, accessible prose designed to support independent study and seminar discussion alike.The textbook is organised into six parts, each covering a major literary period: Origins and Medieval Literature, the Renaissance, the Romantic Period, the Victorian Era, Modern Literature, and Postwar and Contemporary writing. Within each part, individual chapters trace the historical and cultural contexts that shaped literary production, introduce the period's defining genres and forms, and offer close attention to canonical authors - from Chaucer, Spenser, and Shakespeare through Milton, Blake, Wordsworth, and Keats to Eliot, Woolf, Joyce, Achebe, and Rushdie - alongside recovered voices whose work has reshaped the field in recent decades.Two further chapters take a thematic approach, examining the long relationship between English literature and the British Empire through the lens of postcolonial criticism, and tracing the dialogue between literature, science, and ecology from Milton's engagement with the new astronomy to the emergence of climate fiction today.Each chapter is accompanied by a set of Key Terms and concluded by Discussion Questions designed to develop critical thinking and argumentation. A chronological timeline situates major literary works within their broader historical contexts, and period overview tables provide at-a-glance reference for authors, dates, key works, and forms. An appendix of recommended primary texts and secondary reading supports further independent study.This textbook proceeds from the conviction that literary history is not a closed archive but an ongoing conversation - one shaped by new theoretical approaches, newly recovered voices, and readers who bring their own questions to old texts. Students are invited not merely to absorb the tradition but to interrogate it, extend it, and make it their own. This item is printed on demand.
