The artistic and intellectual concerns of Carlos Pellicer were variedand valuable, but there is still no critical edition of his poetry. In a partial way,this paper aims to overcome the void with the critical edition of two long poemsof Pellicer: “Variaciones sobre un tema de viaje” and “Semana holandesa”,included in Hora y 20 (1927). I consider locating the path followed by Pellicer,from writing to publication, can be helpful to understand his work. I appreciatethe collaboration of Carlos Pellicer Lopez, nephew of the poet and owner of thefirst edition of Hora y 20, as well as manuscripts and typewritten documentsused to write this article.
