A Short History Of English Literature (1973) by Ifor Evans – Pelican Original
Sold by Crappy Old Books
Prepare to journey through the dusty pages of literary history with A Short History Of English Literature by Ifor Evans – the 1973 Pelican Original that once adorned every serious student’s bookshelf… or propped up a wonky table.
Evans briskly marches from Beowulf to the Bloomsbury Group, shedding scholarly light (and just a dash of Oxbridge dryness) on the major movements, milestones, and misanthropes of English letters. Whether you’re revisiting the canon or trying to remember who exactly Thomas Nashe was, this compact classic delivers a no-nonsense tour through the centuries.
This copy from Crappy Old Books comes pre-aged, possibly annotated by an overzealous sixth-former, and carries that unmistakable whiff of nostalgia and attic mildew. A perfect read for lovers of secondhand wisdom, outdated scholarship, and the golden age of paperback academia.
