Differentiated book• It has a historical context with research of the time-The King in Yellow by Robert W. Chambers.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 storybook by the American writer Robert W. Chambers, first published by F. Tennyson Neely in 1895. The book is named after a work with the same title that is repeated as the motif in some of the stories. The first half of the book features highly esteemed bizarre stories, and the book has been described by critics like EF Bleiler, ST Joshi, and TED Klein as a classic in the field of the supernatural. There are ten stories, of which the first four (The Rebuilder of Reputations, The Mask, In the Court of the Dragon, and The Yellow Sign) mention The King in Yellow, a forbidden work that induces despair or madness in those who read it. The Yellow Sign inspired a movie of the same name released in 2001.
