	German Literature - LoveToKnow Watches
		The transition from this rigid ecclesiastic spirit to a freer, more imaginative literature is to be seen in the lyric poetry inspired by the Virgin, in the legends of the saints which bulk so largely in the poetry of the 12th century, and in the general trend towards mysticism.
		The disturbing and disintegrating element in the literature of the 13th century was thus the substitution of a utilitarian.didacticism for the idealism of chivalry.
		The literature of the middle of the century was not wanting in achievement, but there was nothing buoyant or youthful about it; most significant of all, the generation between 1848 and 1880 was either oblivious or indifferent to the good work and to the new and germinating ideas which it produced.

	English literature - LoveToKnow Watches
		The literature which arose in answer to this demand, though it consisted mainly of translations or adaptations of foreign works, yet served to develop the appreciation of poetic beauty, and to prepare an audience in the near future for a poetry in which the genuine thought and feeling of the nation were to find expression.
		In histories of English literature the ballads have been so commonly discussed in connexion with their rediscovery in the 18th century, that we are apt to forget that some of the very best were demonstrably composed in the 15th and that many others of uncertain date probably belong to the same time.
		The literature of translations from the classics, in prose and verse, increased; and these works, at first plain, business-like, and uninspired, slowly rose in style and power, and at last, like the translations from modern tongues, were written by a series of masters of English, who thus introduced Plutarch and Tacitus to poets and historians.

		The new literature nevertheless did not fully flourish until the last 20 years of the 1500s, during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I.

		The Golden Age of Dutch literature was coexistent with the establishment of the republic and a period of great commercial prosperity.
		After World War I, a reaction to the overintellectualized literature of the early 1900s was led by Hendrik Marsman (1899–1940), who championed the cause of “vitalism,” a form of expressionism, based on the concept that the poet is merely a member of, and speaks for, the masses.
		By the end of the war, the younger generation of writers had rejected many of the theories of their predecessors; and postwar Dutch literature reflected the disillusionment brought on by the atomic age, the new welfare state, and the cold war.
