Movement

Movement links an author to the larger literary current their work belongs to. Wikipedia notes Austen's novels "are part of the transition to 19th-century literary realism," placing her at a hinge point between two eras of fiction. This dimension gathers authors who share the same literary movement.

The earliest texts date from the second half of the 8th century: translation aids (glosses and glossaries) for those learning to read Latin and translations of Latin Christian texts (prayers, creeds, confessions) for use in missionary or pastoral work among the lay population.
