【 摘 要 】

The history of any national literature mixes up with the history of its nation. One of the reasons lies in the fact that, during the process of building a nation, the issue of standard language emerges and literature plays a decisive role in the formation of both national state and standard language. Thus, this essay focus on the rise of English and American Literatures and their respective contributions to the formation of the identity of England and the U.S.A.
