ANGLO-SAXON LITERATURE The Middle Ages is like no other period in terms of the time span it covers. Caedmon’s Hymn‚ the earliest English poem to survive as a text‚ belongs to the latter part of the VII century.

The Role of Satire in “Gulliver’s Travels” Sir Thomas More wrote “Utopia” in 1516‚ Daniel Defoe produced “Robinson Crusoe” in 1719‚ Jonathan Swift brought forth “Gulliver’s Travels” in 1726. The first coined the much used today word “utopia”‚ the second created the first English novel about reason and moral values‚ and the third fathered probably the best satiric masterpiece.
