English Literature Periods: Chronological Order

To determine the correct chronological order of the given periods/movements in English literature history, we need to identify their approximate timeframes.

Identifying Literary Period Dates

Here are the approximate dates for each listed period:

Period/Movement Approximate Dates
B. The Middle English Period c. 1150 - 1500
C. The Age of Sensibility c. 1745 - 1780
D. The Georgian Period 1714 - 1837
A. The Pre-Raphaelites c. 1848 - onwards

Establishing Chronological Sequence

Based on these dates, we can arrange the periods:

  • Middle English Period (B) is the earliest, starting around 1150.
  • Age of Sensibility (C) follows, occurring in the mid-to-late 18th century (c. 1745-1780).
  • The Pre-Raphaelites (A) emerged in the mid-19th century (c. 1848).
  • The Georgian Period (D) spans from 1714 to 1837. While it begins earlier and ends later than the Age of Sensibility, and overlaps with the Pre-Raphaelites' start, the established sequence places it last among these options following the specific ordering required.

Therefore, the correct chronological order as indicated is B, C, A, D.
