520			_a"From Chaucer to Tennyson" by Henry A. Beers is a historical account written during the late 19th century. The book surveys the evolution of English literature from the Anglo-Saxon period up through the Romantic era, focusing specifically on key authors and literary movements, including Geoffrey Chaucer and Alfred Tennyson among others. The opening of the text sets the stage for this literary journey by discussing the impact of the Norman Conquest on the development of the English language and literature. Beers explains how the introduction of Norman French transformed English, leading to a hybrid linguistic culture that reshaped literary output. He introduces the historical context by outlining the transitional periods of English literature, examining the slow rise of English as a written language again after centuries of linguistic upheaval, and hints at the emergence of prominent figures like Chaucer, who navigated and ultimately contributed significantly to this evolving literary landscape.
