MAGGIO-RAMIREZ, Matías. Reviews as a Construction of an Editorial Horizon. Gregorio Weinberg in Correo Literario (1944-1945). Latinoamérica [online]. 2023, n.77, pp.241-265.  Epub 19-Abr-2024. ISSN 2448-6914.  https://doi.org/10.22201/cialc.24486914e.2023.77.57590.

The objective of this article is to analyze how the reviews published in the newspaper Correo Literario represented the editorial criteria of the new publishers that emerged in the forties. The publishers sought to appeal to the new reading public that, thanks to the process of continuous schooling, reached the world of books. We delved into the reviews written by Gregorio Weinberg, who also signed with his pseudonym Héctor Pacheco Pringles, because in them he established horizons of expectations about the editorial work, both when he officiated as a reviewer and in his role as editor in Lautaro. The positive evaluation of publishers who incorporated prologues, warnings and erudite notes to accompany new readers, was contrasted with publishers who published without any care for the text. The reviews served to reinstate editorial criteria in the absence of an archive of the Lautaro imprint and its collaborators.
