Explanation:

Historical criticism is a branch of criticism that analyzes historical evidence and the context in which a piece of work was written in an attempt to understand the world behind the text. Therefore, the popular cultural trends of the time when the work was written would be the most useful detail - from the ones detailed above - to be mentioned in a historical criticism of a literary work.
