  • This essay analyzes the formation of the literary catalogue of the Tezontle Collection, published by the Fondo de CulturaEconomica (FCE). It studies the origin of literary publications in the development of the FCE’s original project, paying specialattention to the collection’s characteristics between 1940 and 1965. During this time of the FCE’s history, directed by DanielCosio Villegas (1934-47) and Arnaldo Orfila Reynal (1948-65), the first titles appear under the labels Ediciones Tezontle andTezontle. ese were distributed and marketed “without any vested interest” by the FCE up until 1954. As of 1955, the Tezontleseries appears listed in the FCE’s General Catalogue as one of the collections of the press, and its catalogue of titles is added tothe rest of the FCE’s publications. is transition from being an independent label to being part of the FCE’s collection requiresa distinctive methodology to study its pragmatic features, which are related to the cultural policies of the editors of the FCE andits publishing practices.
