Manuel Gutiérrez Nájera: some Unknown Pieces and some Bibliographical Remarks
Abstract
The holdings of the 'Mapes-Carter' collection at Texas-Tech University contain a good amount of unknown material on and by Mexican modernista Manuel Gutiérrez Nájera (1859-1895). This material includes a group of short reviews published by Nájera in the El Correo Germánico in 1876, and a set of laudatory poems addressed to Nájera after his death. In the following pages we reproduce all those texts, and explain their origins and publishing ventures. We also comment on some handwritten notes that appear in other documents of the same collection and that not only shed some light on the existence of more unknown material by Nájera but also question the traditional grouping of some of his most known works.Downloads
