History of English Literature : All the Literary Ages explained

In this video, we are discussing the History of English Literature. We are talking about all the literary ages of English Literature from the Old English Period or the Anglo Saxon Period to the Post Modern Age.
The Literary Ages summary will help you in understanding how English Literature evolved with every century. Watch the entire video for a crisp summary of History of English Literature in English.
We start our discussion with the Anglo Saxon period which continued till 1066 AD. With the Norman Conquest in 1066 AD, Anglo Norman period started. Then we have the Age of Chaucer from 1340-1400 which is the opening moment of English Literature.
Next is the Age of Revival when Reformation of the church took place. Tudor Dynasty started. The Elizabethan Age is also called the Golden Age of England. It started from 1558 and continued till 1603. Renaissance Humanism is an important characteristic of the Elizabethan age. Drama flourished during this age with dramatists such as Christopher Marlowe and William Shakespeare.
Jacobean Age (1603-1625) is the reign of King James 1 whereas Caroline Age (1625-1640) is the reign of King Charles 1. Civil war took place between King Charles 1 and the Parliament of England after which Oliver Cromwell became the Lord Protector of England. In 1660, King Charles 2 was restored to the throne and that marks the Restoration Age which is also called the Age of Dryden.
From 1700-1798, we have the Enlightenment Age or the Neoclassical Age or the Augustan Age. It was the age of prose and reason. Next is the Romantic Age from 1798-1837 which is the age of feelings and emotions.
Victorian Age is the reign of Queen Victoria from 1837-1901. It is the next Golden period of Britain.
Modern Age started from 1901. There were the 2 world wars and the great depression that made the world fragmented.
Post Modern Age started after the 2nd world war in 1945. Britain lost its power and USA became a super power. Writers started celebrating the disorientation and absurdity. Theatre of Absurd, Angry Young man theatre gained popularity.
All the Literary ages explained in this video will help you understand the History of English Literature.

[@niamhaliceverity22]

We don't really get taught the other periods in English Lit classes that aren't involved in the texts we are studying, so this was amazing to be able to see and learn the wider picture of all the time periods! So interesting at the end too to explore and predict what will happen to today's writing period. Thanks for the video!

History of English Literature is so rich. You explained it well.

[@somendusahoo88]

The description of the important details across the periods is compact, it's better to say literary ages at a glance. Well explained.

[@abhishekthakkar7434]

To attempt such a vast topic and present it with simplicity and lucidity requires gumption, tenacity and creativity. I always found history of English literature to be very intricate and never ending topic because it contained diverse multitudes or subsets of topics. The overwhelming content of textbooks and reference books of literature made this topic even more tedious. When copious amounts of information is available, it is very important to organize topics simply so that listeners can comprehend the fundamental characteristics that constitute each age and understand the writers who adorn the various ages of literature. You have truly done an impeccable job, Purba. Your passion for literature and teaching will inspire many literature aficionados to pursue history of english literature relentlessly and fearlessly. This video is a very good presentation of an ever expanding topic which baffles a lot of literature students. I wish you all the best for all your future endeavors, Purba. 😊😊😊

[@LearningLiteraturewithPurba]

Thank you so very much, Abhishek 😊 You saying this means a lot 😊 Thanks for watching the video and for the amazing feedback 😊
