What is literary context?
The term context means the surrounding circumstances, ideas and
words woven together to form the setting or background for an event,
statement, or idea. It includes the historical era in which the work is
created; the experiences, culture, and beliefs of the author; the language
and forms popular at the time of the text's creation; and the experiences,
culture, and beliefs of the reader who approaches the text in his or her
own era.
