The document discusses how historical settings shape people's knowledge, beliefs, and possessions. It provides the example setting of Weston Ranch in 2012, noting how understandings and technologies like electricity, indoor plumbing, cell phones, education, and women's rights differ drastically from settings like 1600, when girls did not wear pants, marriage occurred very young, and the United States had not yet formed.
