Charm and National Spirit of English Literature

Abstract

Familiarity with specific folk literature allows you to get a good idea of its national character, despite the fact that this idea is very difficult to formulate. The national problem in literature is one of the most relevant and interesting problems of modern literary criticism, but also one of the most complex and poorly studied. Research in this direction allows us to take a fresh look at the work of a particular author, expand and deepen our understanding of his work, as well as make a worthy contribution to the development of the theory of national character. This work was connected with the concept of expressing the national spirit in English literature.
