Mustaqil ish theme: anglo saxon language and literature

CONCLUSION
It was my first research work, so, of course, it was a kind of some shock for me. When I began writing the work seemed to me that I would do it quickly enough, for 2 or 4 days, for instance, but I was wrong. After a week of hard work I realized that everything was not as easy as it had seemed. Most of all books at homes are just literary works, and it seems that you can find any information about how these works were written and who wrote them only in special textbooks on literature. Through this work I learned a lot about English literature as well as Anglo Saxson literature. It was quite interesting to have a look at the history of development of literature. The beginning of the English literature is usually attributed to the beginning of Anglo-Saxon period. The first major monuments of Anglo-Saxon literature - Latin monuments - belong to the representatives of the clergy. Take Aldgelm for instance, who lived in the second half of the VII century and was the author of florid prose and poetry. Although we do regard the ancient monuments of the Anglo-Saxon language, major poetic works which have been preserved up to modern times were written in the XI century, except for the documents, chronicles, texts of the laws. The writers of the Christian clergy processed some of the pagan poetry ("Vidsid", "Deora Complaint"). The most remarkable monument of ancient English poetry is the poem of Beowulf. It describes the events related to the first half of the VI century, the era of struggle with the Goths francs. The "Golden Age" of the Anglo-Saxon literature is before the invasion of the Normans, the era of Alfred the Great, the winner against the Danes who have been spoiling Britain for almost two centuries. Alfred did much to restore the destroyed culture, to raise the education, he himself was a writer and a translator (he translated "The Church History" written by Bede in Latin into the Anglo-Saxon language).
To conclude, 1. The literary periods are classified according to the historic periods of the development of English society. 2. The Literature of Middle Ages is subdivided into 2 periods: Anglo-Saxon and Middle English. Middle English comprises the period between the Norman Conquest 1066 and Renaissance. 3. The Anglo-Saxon period is characterised by the appearance of first writings connected with Bible stories and religion. The writers were monks and priests. The main form of writing was alliterative verse. 4. The beginning of English Literature was marked by one of the greatest epics “Beowulf” that depicted the aspirations of people for freedom. 5. The Literature of Middle Ages started with the Norman period which brought into being new literary forms, such as: romance, fable, fabliaux, ballad and folk songs, each reflecting the life of different ranks of society.Concerning the ways to carry on with the research, I think it would be a good idea to have a look at one of the periods or one of the genres or even one of the literary movements more closely.
