Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-This book contains a historical context, which helps us understand this literary work. We must pay special attention to those events that especially influenced the world of culture and art and also to those events that were especially reflected in literature, in the life of its writer or that affected it. There are many examples in which historical events have shaped the content and forms of literature, as well as this has often been the best testimony to the importance of certain events throughout history. 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."The Mask of Red Death", it is one of my favorite stories. I had not read it until that moment, but since I am a fan of Edgar Allan Poe I signed up immediately. In addition, in the month of May this story will turn 175 years of having been published for the first time, and what better time to unscrew its narrative mechanics, and continue learning more from this teacher. The events are told from an external point of view, through a third-person narrator, who is limited to giving details of everything that can be observed and heard, however, it is not part of the events.
