The language of a past time is known by the quality of its literature. Charters and records yield their secrets to the philologist and contribute their quota of words and inflections to our dictionaries and grammars. But it is in literature that a language displays its full power, its ability to convey in vivid and memorable form the thoughts and emotions of a people. The Middle English literature is fortunately one of the richest and most significant of any preserved. Because it is the language mobilized, the language in action, we must say a word about it.

By the mid
15th century, as this period of British history was coming to a close,
Gutenberg finished development of his printing press, thereby giving
lower and middle class people their first opportunity to be able to
afford to purchase books and other literary works; and expanded literacy
in Britain, leading to the emergence of the Renaissance.
