본문내용
The international latin language (B.C. 75 – A.D. 1500) was replaced by the more civilized English language in the Middle Ages, though it defeated the Greek language. The latin was at the time barbaric and immoral, compared to the Dark language of English written in the Bible and the narrative and lyric literatures. The International English Language since A.D. 1000 has been developed into the greatness of the English literature and language. A literary dogma came into being in this stage of cultural interactions among Latin and Bible and English. A dogma of the Bible won the international status of religious culture with English and the English literature. This medieval survival and interconnection of the English poetry and prose gain the dramatic culmination in the English Renaissance of Shakespeare and the classical culmination in the English neo-classical period of Pope, Dryden, and Johnson. The English lyrics revived in the common culture for the common people of the early nineteenth century. The Second Internationalization of the English Language is made possible by the Victorian Arnold around 1890. Arnold undoubtedly represents the second internationalization of the great English language and the English civilization in the Victorian Age. Victoria and her literature made English the international tradition of great culture, and this great tradition of English has been also preserved and strengthened by the prosperity of the Irish literature in the 20th century.
