Mexican Literary History and Luis González Obregón's El Pensador Mexicano 1918

1918rif. 216641918. González Obregón Luis. El Pensador Mexicano: Diálogos sobre cosas de su tiempo sacados del olvido 1918 returns José Joaquín Fernández de Lizardi's reformist literary persona to circulation during the post-revolutionary reconstruction of Mexican historical memory. González Obregón a historian and chronicler of Mexico City selected and presented dialogues associated with "El Pensador Mexicano" Lizardi's influential pseudonym using early republican and nineteenth-century commentary to address national identity civic criticism and cultural inheritance. The issue belongs to Mexican literary-historical culture illustrating how post-revolutionary editors used earlier political writing to recover models of social critique and public intellectual life. González Obregón Luis. El Pensador Mexicano: Diálogos sobre cosas de su tiempo sacados del olvido. México: Cultura 1918. First edition. T. VI Núm. 6. Portada de Valerio Prieto. 78 pages and one leaf. Original printed wrappers with red architectural cover design incorporating Mexico City's Metropolitan Cathedral 8vo. Bibliographic records identify the work as part of the Cultura series and note Valerio Prieto's cover while Stanford records the imprint as México: Typ. Murguía 1918. The wrappers' cathedral imagery links the publication visually to Mexico City's colonial and national past while the text's title "sacados del olvido" states its recovery project directly. Published in 1918 during the unsettled years following the Mexican Revolution and the 1917 Constitution the issue participates in a broader effort to define Mexican civic culture through historical recovery rather than through contemporary polemic alone. González Obregón's treatment of Lizardi places journalism dialogue and moral criticism within a lineage of Mexican public letters useful for studying post-revolutionary literary nationalism and the preservation of nineteenth-century intellectual traditions. Covers heavily worn with edge chipping significant loss to upper right and lower margins and spine creasing; interior pages browned but intact with foxing and minor corner wear; good. A fragile Cultura-series issue connecting post-revolutionary Mexican historical consciousness with the legacy of Lizardi's public criticism. unknown
