The Turn of the Screw (Annotated) 💀 scary.co

Differentiated book• It has a historical context with research of the time-The purpose of realizing this historical context is to approach the understanding of a historical epoch from the elements provided by the text. Hence the importance of placing the document in context. It is necessary to unravel what its author or authors have said, how it has been said, when, why and where, always relating it to its historical moment.Most critics consider The Turn of the Screw the best ghost story ever written and a perfect example of the short novel, the genre that Henry James called the Shapely Nouvelle, in contrast to the baggy monster, the extensive novelWhere sexuality is least expected: the novel is a male monster, "wide, loose" perhaps also "full of bags" in the sense that everything fits in its pages (That is, DH Lawrence will say, "the luminous book of the world" ) On the other hand, the short novel appears before James as feminine, turned, beautiful, well proportioned. The author chose an adjective, shapely, which is usually applied only to the woman's bodyJosé Bianco translated the title in 1944 as Another twist It was kept by Alberto Luis Bixio and Antonio Desmonts; Sergio Pitol preferred The twist In the sense of "a new twist", James justifies from the beginning the name he gave to his narration; if it is unusual for ghosts to appear to a child, it becomes even more rare for them to manifest themselves in front of two children (“that means two laps”) In addition, the screw that made the torture colt is turned and since 1821 screw is the vulgar and violent way of referring to the sexual act
