Flatland (Annotated) Edwin Abbott Abbott

Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-Flatland by Edwin Abbott Abbott. This book contains a historical context, where past events or the study and narration of these events are examined. The historical context refers to the circumstances and incidents surrounding an event. This context is formed by everything that, in some way, influences the event when it happens. A fact is always tied to its time: that is, to its time. Therefore, when analyzing events that took place tens, hundreds or thousands of years ago, it is essential to know the historical context to understand them. Otherwise, we would be analyzing and judging what happened in a totally different era with a current perspective. It is a satirical novel by the English school teacher Edwin Abbott Abbott, first published in 1884 by Seeley & Co. of London. Written under the pen name "A Square," the book used Flatland's two-dimensional fictional world to comment on the hierarchy of Victorian culture, but the novel's most enduring contribution is its examination of dimensions. Several films have been made in history, including the film Flatland (2007). Other efforts have been short films or experimental films
