Literature in Britain and Ireland is a survey of literature on the British Isles since the time of the Anglo-Saxons. Despite this wide angle, the linguistic, regional and ethnic differentiations in each particular period are being emphasised.

Innovative tendencies in teaching English literature are taken into account beyond the consideration of popular and contemporary literature.
