Summary | "Geschichte der Englischen Sprache und Literatur" by Ottomar Behnsch is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. This work explores the development of the English language and its literature from its earliest stages, specifically focusing on key periods, including the Anglo-Saxon era and the influences of Norman and French language establishments. The book delves into the transitions in language due to historical events and cultural shifts that shaped the English identity. The beginning of this extensive study sets the stage by discussing the earliest inhabitants of Britain— the Celts, Romans, and Germans— highlighting their cultural characteristics and the languages they spoke. It lays the groundwork for the evolution of the English language, establishing a chronological framework that leads into the Anglo-Saxon period. This portion emphasizes the societal structures and interactions between various groups as a precursor to the linguistic transformations that followed, preparing the reader for a deeper exploration of English literature's origins and its adaptation through subsequent invasions and cultural exchanges.
