​Start with the complete history of English Literature. Start from Chaucer but do not spend much time on Chaucer or the early Elizabethan period. 
BE VERY ATTENTIVE TO SHAKESPEARE. Read as many of his dramas as you can and try to get a hang of what he is saying how his works are pertinent in the context of literary merit and philosophy. There's another very important use of Shakespeare which I'll come to later.
​
Move on to Renaissance and study Renaissance not just in terms of English Literary movement but as a philosophical concept of humanism and its aesthetics. Than come to the Jacobean age and Milton and read what you can but don't waste too much time. Have a similar albeit a bit more detailed look at the age of reason and the 18th century. Go on to Romanticism and along with the history of the movement, read as much of Keats, Shelly, Coleridge etc.
