Anglo Saxon Period: History of English Literature | Major Writers & Works

The story of English literature begins with the Germanic tradition of the Anglo-Saxon settlers. The Anglo-Saxons were prominent in the early Middle Ages, stretching from the first century up to the Renaissance, which began around the 14th century. The Anglo-Saxons invaded what is current-day England around the year 450, and were the dominant group until the Norman invasion in 1066.
