• Resumen

  • The essay analizes the influence that the Atheneaum of the Youth had during the two first decades of the Mexican Revolution. If is true that the association as itself was extinct by 1914, its spirit also survived in the National Preparatory School, in the High Studies National School (background of the Facultad de Filosofía y Letras), and in its own institution, the Popular Mexican University, which was created by the atheneaumists in 1912. The job of following with the cultural company started around the middle of Porfirio Díaz's régime, is confined to José Vasconcelos, expresident of the Atheneaum. He also continued with this job as principal guide of the National University of Mexico, which was created by Justo Sierra the same year that the revolution started, and as minister of the Public Education Secretary created by himself. But as the similarities between Vasconcelos and his colleagues (Pedro Henríquez Ureña, Antonio Caso, Alfonso Reyes, etcetera) are fixed, the differences are not clearly marked. Differences that finally won the game.
