Features: This book is a set of teaching materials designed for English majors in higher education institutions in China, written by the author based on the chronological order of British literary history combined with selected readings. Due to limited class time, the historical section only provides a concise overview, while the selected readings section carefully chooses important writers and significant works from literary history. This combined "history" and "selection" textbook is published in two volumes: the first volume covers ancient to 18th-century British literature, and the second volume covers 19th-century to 20th-century British literature. The textbook is rich in content, presents correct perspectives, and features representative selections. It can serve as a textbook or reference book for British literary history and selected readings courses in English departments of higher education institutions. It is also an ideal reading material for teachers, English self-learners with a certain level of proficiency, and enthusiasts of British and American literature.
