I'm not entirely sure of the exact nature of the question, but the best answer is probably to explain the origin of "Anglo saxon." The Angles and the Saxons were two groups of people who settled in Britain centuries ago. Their people groups merged and came to be called the "Anglo-Saxons." The Angles spoke a language that was called "Angleish" and this is what became "English." Therefore, the literature written by the Anglo-Saxon people would have been called "Anglo Saxon Literature."

Would a grammar lesson derail a literature lesson?
Keeping in mind that literature and grammer often have only a fleeting relationship, it is safe to say that a grammar lesson would not derail a literature lesson, but would serve only to punctuate the difference between how things ought to be said, and how they are normally said so that people can understand them. This is called artistic licence.
Where did the word 'stickler' originate?
A Stickler is someone who unyieldingly insists on something. The earliest Sticklers were umpires or referees at wrestling or fencing matches. The word comes from the Anglo-Saxon 'Stihtan' - to arrange or regulate. I must admit I had a good idea where it came from. I saw an article in our 1860 newspapers about Cornish wrestling and the referees were called "sticklers". So I presumed it was a Cornish word but maybe it had currency in Wales and Ireland too.

When did the Anglo Saxon start?
The Anglo Saxon was in Germany"Anglo Saxon" refers specifically to two tribes who lived in what is now Germany and Denmark as well from ancient times until the end of the Roman Empire. The Angles came from a place called Angeln which is on the border between Germany and Denmark in the part of Germany that is now called Schleswig-Holstein. The Saxons came from Saxony (also called Sachsen) which is the area of northern Germany around the city of Hamburg. Sometimes people consider the Jutes to be "Anglo-Saxon" as well. The Jutes are from Jutland which is now in Denmark. The Angles and the Saxons were never in the Roman Empire, they lived outside it, and they used to make their money by being paid to be mercenary soldiers for the Romans and also the governments of parts of the former Roman Empire. In 410AD the Romans left Britain and there were many problems. In 449AD the British Government of the time invited some of the Anglo-Saxons to come to Britain to help them fight the Scots and the Irish who kept invading. The Anglo-Saxons period starts from 449AD. In about 480AD the Angles and the Saxons decided they were not going to do what the British government wanted so they revolted and told their friends to come to Britain to steal things and make it their own land. When they invaded Britain there was already people here - Welsh speaking people - who they killed or forced to leave their homes. Some Welsh people who stayed were made into slaves. Eventually the Anglo-Saxons conquered all of what is now called England, but it was divided into at least seven English speaking kingdoms for a long time. These Anglo-Saxon kingdoms are known as the Heptarchy and were Wessex, Essex, Sussex, East Anglia, Kent, Mercia and Northumbria. The period in English History usually considered the Anglo-Saxon Period started from the beginning of the Anglo-Saxon invasion (449AD) and continues until 1066AD which is when the Norman Conquest occurred and England was invaded and conquered by the Normans.
