Description
Summary:Since 1985 the ways in which the fields of Bibliography, Textual Criticism, and the History of Reading have been affected by the production, transmission and reception processes of texts, as well as the role of grammatical and typographical elements in textual objects, have been up for discussion, taking under consideration the study of these aspects as historically recorded forms. Therefore, the analysis of linguistic objects beyond book-form, mainly disseminated by the periodical press, has come to the fore. However, the repercussions and modes of transmission related to literary imitations and translations during the Mexican 19th century have not been sufficiently explored. This article proposes the recovery of Lord Byron’s “Stanzas to Jessy” poem, to comprehend its distribution, appropriation, and insertion channels in 19th century Mexican literature.
