Gallegos, Juan Marinello. Title piece design by Miguel Prieto. The pages of this magazine were the first major typografic design by Prieto. See: "Miguel Prieto: Diseño Grafico", pg. 56. Sold as set El origen de la revista Romance guarda estrecha relación con la Guerra Civil Española (1936-1939), que producirá la llamada Literatura del Exilio español. Dos amigos republicanos, Antonio Sánchez Barbudo y Lorenzo Varela, se propusieron desde la península, fundar una revista ya establecidos en México como exiliados. La nota distintiva de la publicación sería recoger las expresiones del movimiento cultural hispanoamericano El primer número apareció a los cinco meses de iniciada la Segunda Guerra Mundial. La revista fue una de las primeras ediciones de la empresa Edición y Distribución Iberoamericana de Publicación (Ediapsa), fundada por Rafael Giménez Siles y Martín Luis Guzmán. Romance fue de las primeras revistas que tuvieron corresponsales en Europa. En sus páginas registraban eventos culturales y artísticos de París, Madrid y otras ciudades. Cada uno de los números presentó secciones fijas, entre las que se encontraba la sección literaria, que generalmente refería a los textos del Siglo de Oro, aunque también figuraban poemas de reciente producción. En la sección de arte colaboraron José Clemente Orozco y José Guadalupe Posada, entre otros. La sección "Los libros por dentro" contenía valiosas críticas de libros nacionales y extranjeros. También hubo un espacio dedicado a artículos científicos comentados. La ruptura en la directiva ocurrió cuando Ediapsa quiso imponer como nuevo director a Martín Luis Guzmán, y tanto Antonio Sánchez Barbudo como Lorenzo Varela y los demás miembros decidieron abandonar la publicación.

2002. ISBN-13: 9781584771708; ISBN-10: 1584771704. "Clearly Entitled to Rank Among the Classics" Wheaton, Henry. Elements of International Law: with a Sketch of the History of the Science. Originally published: Philadelphia: Carey, Lea & Blanchard, 1836. xiv, 375 pp. Reprinted 2002, 2019 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781584771708; ISBN-10: 1584771704. Hardcover. New. $44.95 * Written when the author was a diplomat posted in Berlin, this distinguished treatise went through several American and English editions, and several more in French, Italian, Spanish and Chinese. A standard work during the nineteenth century, an edition was published in England as late as 1936. "On his own merits Wheaton is clearly entitled to rank among the classics. Like Grotius, he embodied a happy combination of profound scholarship with a wide experience of diplomatic and public life, and his work further resembles that of Grotius in that it cannot be classified under the conventional labels of any doctrinal system. His insistence upon the fundamental principles of natural law is balanced by his analysis of practice as an immediate source of positive law." H.A. Smith, Law Quarterly Review 307-308. "Mr. Wheaton's early familiarity with the jurisprudence and foreign relations of the United States, his long experience in diplomacy, his intimate acquaintance with European languages and foreign diplomatic writers, entitles his writings upon International Law to more than ordinary consideration. His works enjoy the highest reputation for the soundness of their views, and the learning and research displayed in illustrating the various topics discussed." --J.G. Marvin, Legal Bibliography 728. "(A)n excellent work...Indisputably the best of its kind in the English language." --James Reddie, Inquiries into International Law (1842) 106. HENRY WHEATON [1785-1848] was a justice of the Marine Court of New York City, a member of the New York State constitutional convention of 1821, a one-term representative to the New York State Assembly and a high-level diplomat who served in Denmark and Prussia. An important legal writer, he was the reporter of the U.S. Supreme Court from 1816 to 1827 and the author of several notable treatises, including A History of the Law of Nations in Europe and America (1838) and An Enquiry into the Validity of the Bri.
