The second period: Renaissance, with drama as the main literary work, Shakespeare and his tragedies, comedies and historical plays need attention.
The third period: The Romantic Period, the literary works in this period are mainly prose poems, and Shelley, Keats and william blake are all representative poets in this period. Their works include Ode to a Nightingale.
The fourth period: Victorian period, which is a period when prose poems gradually withdraw and novels gradually rise. The famous poets in this period were robert browning and Alfred. But the novels of Dickens and the Bronte sisters are more famous, such as Oliver Twist and Wuthering Heights.
The fifth period: modernism, literary works are mainly novels, and there are various schools of black and pink, including realism, absurdism and stream of consciousness. Irish writers Ye Zhi and Joyce are both representatives of this era. Joyce's Ulysses is a masterpiece of stream of consciousness. Also belonging to the stream of consciousness is Virginia Woolf, a female writer whose masterpiece To the Lighthouse.
The sixth period: contemporary: mainly refers to the period from the 1980s to the present. It is difficult for literary works in this period to enter the eyes of critics. The main feature is that the content is mostly fast food culture, which is not a classic. However, the film art in this period developed very rapidly, and many scripts were excellent works. It is not difficult to see that after the wheel of literary history goes from poetry to drama to novel, the next stop is likely to be movies.

As for the history of English literature, Liu Shoushan's History of English Literature says that the Victorian period was the peak of English realistic novels, and Dickens was the representative figure. At that time, there was a wave of realism in Britain because romanticism swept from the previous18th century to Britain in the early19th century. The poems of Shelley and Keats were romantic, which made people forget the reality for a while, but with the fading of romanticism, people. This is a common view in China academic circles.
But I personally think that in Victorian England, the sun never sets, and the wealth of the whole world is accumulated, so its locals can't be as miserable as described in Dickens' novels. Therefore, I think Dickens' so-called realistic novel is a kind of pseudo-romanticism, that is, the kind of romance that sells well after getting cheap.
I have seen and sold the history of English literature and selected readings in Xidan Book Building.

What is the restoration drama in the history of English literature? From 1642, when the Puritans closed the theater, to the opening of the theater three months after the restoration, the British theater was silent for eighteen years. Besides Dryden, there are also famous tragic writers in the Restoration period, such as Nathanie Lee and Thomas Oatway, who are greatly influenced by French classical drama. Li's The Jealous Queen and Oatway's Preserving Venice both describe the conflict between love, honor and responsibility, while Oatway's Preserving Venice is regarded as the masterpiece of English classical tragedy.
The comedy of the restoration period is quite excellent. They are different from Elizabethan romantic comedies, but comedies that satirize customs. The object of irony was the British upper class at that time. But their satire is not profound, and they express their life with relaxed mood and pleasant satire. Witty and humorous dialogue is a prominent feature. The most common theme of comedy is the love dispute between men and women in the upper class, which reflects the frivolous and dissolute fashion in the court.

How about all three volumes of the history of English literature? In addition to The History of English Literature, Liang also has three translations of Selected Readings of English Literature, which have been included in The Collected Works of Liang China and should be published separately and read together with The History of English Literature! Liang devoted his whole life to translating all Shakespeare's works, being faithful to the original works, and surpassing the popular China version of Zhu Shenghao. Wang Yang's Shakespearean style is unrestrained and does not avoid vulgarity, so Liang has its charm.
