This paper explores some of the initial coincidences in the poetry and the biography and also in the political and cultural breeding of the writers Octavio Paz and José Revueltas that one could find in their youth years. It points out to a scarcely known book by Marx, the Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844, which was translated in México for the first time in 1939, and that impacts strongly in the texts that both writers do publish. Later, their philosophical evolution shows signs of divergence when in the fifties Paz joins in one part the surrealistic movement and in the other begins to read Heidegger's work, whilst Revueltas stands faithful to his strongly hegelian lecture of Marx.
