Abstract
Based on the question of how much the editorial dimension has been considered in the production and circulation of the revolutionary corrido, in this paper I present the results of the research around the first compilation of this literary subgenre, published in 1931 not by a researcher, but, precisely, by an author, editor and printer of popular literature. I am referring to Eduardo Guerrero and his Corridos históricos de la revolución mexicana desde 1910 hasta 1930. In addition to offering a profile of Guerrero's publishing house, recovering primary and secondary sources, I place the compiled volume in its context, critically assuming its biases and the fact that it is made up of materials that originally circulated as broadsheets, whose dynamics may contradict the commemorative vocation of the compilation. Then, I address the results of the main analysis, which is the editorial dimension of the broadsheets around four aspects (the graphics, the enunciation of the titles, the organization of the texts and the authorship). All these aspects are inseparable from the complete understanding of the history of popular printing in the 20th century and from the evolution of the revolutionary corrido as a literary expression aimed fundamentally to be oralized.
