Literature & Poetry

In 1476 William Caxton set up England's first printing press, then printed and distributed various popular narratives, including Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales. Caxton's editing contributions helped standardize extreme regional variation in the English language, which is credited with solidifying England’s national stability.
