J. Jusserand is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book explores the evolution of English literature, tracing its development from its ancient origins through the Renaissance. It delves into the complex narrative of cultural exchanges and influences that have shaped English literary identity over time. The opening of the book introduces the reader to the rich tapestry of early British history, particularly focusing on its diverse Celtic roots and the transition into English language and literature as influenced by Roman and later Germanic invasions. Jusserand discusses the fusion of races, the characteristics of Celtic literature, and the impact of the Roman conquest, setting the stage for the evolution of a uniquely English literary tradition. He emphasizes the significance of this historical context in understanding the contributions of various cultures and peoples to the formation of English identity as expressed through its literature.
