Abstract
Description
The aim of this article is to analyze, from the views expressed in the journalistic debate between Francisco Bulnes and Eduardo de Bazán y Caravantes, how important poetic production was among nine- teenth-century Mexican writers. Both claimed that poetic critique was not supported by what we would now call academic arguments, but by general inter- pretations based on the virtues of the author. Thus, poetry was not valued for its stylistic qualities or poetic relevance but for its political orientation and for the person who wrote it.
