Введение
В этой статье представлен хронологический список лет в литературе (в порядке убывания), с указанием значимых публикаций и соответствующих годов, а также небольшого отбора заметных событий. Временной охват отдельных лет включает литературу эпохи Возрождения, Барокко и Новое время, в то время как средневековая литература рассматривается по столетиям. Обратите внимание: отдельный список лет в поэзии существует специально для поэзии. Обзор всех страниц "год в литературе" представлен в таблице "Годы в литературе". Было предпринято несколько попыток создать список мировой литературы. Среди них – проект "Великие книги", включающий серию книг "Великие книги западного мира", насчитывающую в настоящее время 60 томов. В 1998 году американское издательство Modern Library опросило свой редакционный совет с целью определить 100 лучших романов XX века: Modern Library 100 Best Novels. Эти попытки подверглись критике за англоцентричность и игнорирование других литературных традиций.

This article gives a chronological list of years in literature (descending order), with notable publications listed with their respective years and a small selection of notable events. The time covered in individual years covers Renaissance, Baroque and Modern literature, while Medieval literature is resolved by century. Note: List of years in poetry exists specifically for poetry. See Table of years in literature for an overview of all "year in literature" pages. Several attempts have been made to create a list of world literature. Among these are the great books project including the book series Great Books of the Western World, now containing 60 volumes. In 1998 Modern Library, an American publishing company, polled its editorial board to find the best 100 novels of the 20th century: Modern Library 100 Best Novels. These attempts have been criticized for their anglophone bias and disregard of other literary traditions.
