The Elements of Style (Annotated)

Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-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. Dorothy Parker once wrote: "If you have young friends who aspire to become writers, the second biggest favor you can do is present them with copies of The Elements of Style. The first, of course, is to shoot them now, while they are happy. "Many Americans, who believe they can be taught to write, will turn to The Elements of Style as the indispensable road map through a desert without traces of rotating words. From the Great War to the Cold War, this little book, was only the attempt of a university professor to reduce "the great tangle of custom-made English rhetoric and write its rules and principles at the tip of a pin."
