INTRODUCTION 
Literature written in the English language includes many countries such as 
the United Kingdom and its crown dependencies, 
Republic of Ireland
, the United 
States, and the countries of the former 
British Empire
. The English language has 
developed over the course of more than 1,400 years. The earliest forms of English, 
a 
set 
of 
Anglo-Frisian 
dialects
brought 
to 
Great 
Britain
by 
Anglo-Saxon 
invaders
in the fifth century, are called 
Old English
. 
Beowulf
is the most famous 
work in Old English, and has achieved national epic status in England, despite 
being set in 
Scandinavia
. However, following the 
Norman conquest
of England in 
1066, the written form of the 
Anglo-Saxon language
became less common. Under 
the influence of the new aristocracy, French became the standard language of 
courts, parliament, and polite society. The English spoken after the Normans came 
is known as 
Middle English
. This form of English lasted until the 1470s, when 
the 
Chancery Standard
(late Middle English), a 
London
-based form of English, 
became widespread. 
Geoffrey Chaucer
(1343 – 1400), author of 
The Canterbury 
Tales
, was a significant figure in the development of the legitimacy 
of 
vernacular
Middle English at a time when the dominant literary languages in 
England were still French and Latin. The 
invention of the printing 
press
by 
Johannes Gutenberg
in 1439 also helped to standardize the language, as 
did the 
King James Bible
(1611), and the 
Great Vowel Shift
.
