GARCIA NINO, Arturo E.. A Journey to the Written Origins of a Hermeneutist and Storyteller: Three Poems by Edmundo O'Gorman in Alcancía 1 (January 1933). Relac. Estud. hist. soc. [online]. 2020, vol.41, n.161, pp.134-151.  Epub Nov 19, 2020. ISSN 2448-7554.  https://doi.org/10.24901/rehs.v41i161.802.

In 1932, the young Edmundo O'Gorman and Justino Fernández, aspiring storytellers and poets, created the publishing house Alcancía and in January of the following year they brought to light the first issue of the magazine that bore the same name: Alcancía. In that first issue, out of five edited, O'Gorman released three poems that, as far as is known, were the only ones who in his life made public in writing. Years later, both young men would decide to be historians and end up being inescapable references in national and international historiography. From their beginnings as editors/writers, the vicissitudes of their project and the environment in which they, the publisher and the magazine, developed, account for the lines to come. In addition, a general approximation (thematic and stylistic) is made to the poems of the young O'Gorman to trace his influences.

Keywords : Edmundo O'Gorman; Justino Fernández; editorial Alcancía; Alcancía magazine; poetry.
