Colombian short story at the Colombian illustrated magazine "El Gráfico" (1925-1941)
Abstract
El Gráfico. Semanario Ilustrado (1910-1941), founded by typographers Alberto Sánchez and Abraham Cortés, was born as a magazine to provide illustrations, history, information, literature and varieties to its readers. In the second phase of the magazine (1925-1941), the journal will have changes that will affect the way in which the short story literary genre was published in its pages. This paper will show the way in which El Gráfico became a mass media that reaffirmed the difference between the specialized and commercial circuits of the literary, and contributed to the specialization and modernization of the Colombian short story. The analysis proposed in the current paper will be based on the relations between the press and literature and will be focused on short stories written by Ecco Neli y Pedro Gómez Corena.Downloads
