Indo-Anglian Authors It’s the same Indian Curry – the spices are Indian‚ the flavours remain rural and the colours are still rich and earthy‚ except for the fact that it is savoured with a different spoon. That is Indo-Anglian literature or English literature penned by an Indian author. With the sudden surge of writers in this genre‚ its history is very recent‚ mostly limited to the last two centuries.

Caedmon’s Hymn‚ the earliest English poem to survive as a text‚ belongs to the latter part of the VII century. The morality play‚ Everyman‚ is dated "after 1485" and probably belongs to the early-XVI century.
