MANRIQUE FIGUEROA, César. Índice de nombres latinos de ciudades con imprenta, by José Ignacio Mantecón: A Tool from the Past for the Future. Bibliographica [online]. 2020, vol.3, n.2, pp.169-186.  Epub 09-Dic-2024. ISSN 2594-178X.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iib.2594178xe.2020.2.85.

The collection Instrumenta Bibliographica was created by UNAM’s Institute of Bibliographical Research in 1973. Its first volume was the successful Manual de metodología y técnica bibliográficas by Professor Gloria Escamilla González, which was reedited twice and subsequently reprinted. The following volume was the Índice de nombres latinos de ciudades con imprenta 1448-1825, prepared by one of the most widely recognized bibliographers of 20th century Mexico, José Ignacio Mantecón Navasal. This paper underlines the relevance, originality, currency, and usefulness of this pioneering text, contextualizing it with Mantecon’s work in Mexico from the 1940’s onwards and, finally, eventualing a potential revision, correction, and digital reediting of Mantecon’s Índice.
