Abstract

The main objective of this article is to sketch the work published in the most representative Cuban cultural journals and newspapers of the second decade of the 20th century by the Mexican intellectuals who were exiled in Havana during the Mexican Revolution. Historical studies do not approach often to this topic, and when they do is always from a political point of view. The itinerary of national writers in Havana’s media, during the fiercest times of the armed struggle, is reconstructed here thanks to the rescue of texts previously unknown. In the first section, the article offers a general outllook of the exiles in Cuba, to later focus on the figures of Federico Gamboa and Luis G. Urbina.
