Abstract
CERVANTES BECERRIL, Freja Ininna. The Printed of Trials. Camila Henríquez Ureña and the The magazine Lyceum. Rev. hist. Am. [online]. 2020, n.158, pp.267-287. Epub Feb 28, 2022. ISSN 2663-371X. https://doi.org/10.35424/rha.158.2020.596.
This article analyses the collaboration of Camila Henríquez Ureña as director and author of the trimestral magazine Lyceum (1936-1939) in its first stage, published by the society Feminine Lyceum Club of the Havana. For that purpose it is explained the origin of the magazine in relation with the phenomenon of the feminine societies founded at the beginning of the 20th century and, specifically, the cultural and social relevance of this institution of private nature in Cuba, which represented a fundamental space for the intellectual encounter for the society of the Havana, for the intellectuals of the Spanish exile and the international community. For their great documentary value, the 14 issues, which constitute the corpus of the Lyceum magazine, represent in this period an essential source to know the programming principles which encouraged the publishing and distribution, with the intellectual labour of Camila Henríquez Ureña, who apart from undertaking an intense feminist activism, collaborated on other projects with Fernando Ortiz and José María Chacón y Calvo, among others.
