Flatland (Annotated)

By: Abbott Abbott, Edwin

Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-The first thing that catches Flatland's attention is its full title: Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions. For the moment, let's ignore the questionable Spanish translation, which turns Flatland into Planilandia (pure eagerness for the translator to play a leading role) and understands that English romance is not a romance, but a novel (simple ignorance). But also, in its original language, it is difficult to define Flatland as a romance, since less than half of the book presents a narration with something similar to a character, while most of it is a treatise about the world called Flatland. The first part, which includes historical, sociological and customs details, presents the reader with a two-dimensional world from the point of view of a square, being that Flatland inhabits.They are about 80 pages that look like intermediate chapters of Moby Dick (assuming that Moby Dick was a Victorian science fiction work) or some preamble to the Lord of the Rings that Tolkien liked to write about - yes, with a fraction of the creator's detail from Middle Earth. We discovered a society in which a family can advance from the lowest strata to the aristocracy.
