Нужно перевести текст! не сильно большой : renaissance in the english literature. one of the most important factors in the nature and development of english literature between about 1350 and 1550 was the peculiar linguistic situation in england at the beginning of the period. among the small minority of the population that could be regarded as literate, bilingualism and even trilingualism were common. the 15th century was a major period of growth in lay literacy, a process powerfully expedited by the introduction into england of printing by william caxton in 1476.modern lyric poetry in english begins in the early 16th century with the work of sir thomas wyatt(1503-1542) and henry howard, earl of surrey(1517-1547). wyatt, who was greatly influenced by the italian francesco petrarca (petrarch), introduces the sonnet and a range of short lyrics to english, while surrey (as he is known) develops unrhymed pentameters (or blank verse). a flowering of lyric poetry in the reign of elizabeth i comes with such writers as sir philip sidney (1554-1586), edmund spenser(1552-1599), sir walter ralegh(1552-1618), christopher marlowe (1564-1593) and william shakespeare(1564-1616). переводчик сразу видно, если что; )
