Little Magazines and the New Literature of the Sixties: The Case of El Corno Emplumado / The Plumed Horn

The article analyses the role and characteristics of the Mexican-American poetry magazine El corno emplumado / The Plumed Horn. It proposes that the magazine establishes a transnational node for alternative aesthetic exchanges by reinventing core aspects of the literary avantgarde between 1910 y 1920. The intention is to show how the seemingly provisional spaces of little magazines form topographies for a new literature that transgress the boundaries of other institutions and geopolitical borders.
