All About English Literature: College Edition (Electronic book text)

It would not be an exaggeration of appreciation were I to compare English Literature to a vast and enchanting ocean in which even a new diver, a non-native fan of the language, could survive for entire life by drawing oxygen from the bubbles left by the former divers from different ages, very well-knowing that once submerged it would not be within his or her power to come out of the ocean that looks, very positively, like a cul de sac, at the newcomer. This book is a detailed study of the history of English Literature, English writers, and how English Literature has brought itself to the present stage.
