20th-century English Literature


Prose, poetry, and drama written in English in the UK in the 1900s. The century was a period of great artistic change, and is dominated by the impact of World War I (1914–18) and World War II (1939–45), as well as by the artistic concerns of modernism (which affected both themes and methods of writing). The range of literature and of its readership, which increased in the 19th-century English literature period, rose even more rapidly in the 20th century. See also English literature.
