Abstract

The contribution intends to approach studies on the reception of Antonio Gramsci in Cuba in the 1960s, including through a rereading of existing essays on the subject by Jorge Luis Acanda, Fernando Martínez Heredia and Marta Núñez Sarmiento. The intent will be to identify, in the context of the time, an international publishing network without 'dissent' (in the sense attributed, as we shall see, by Şebnem Susam-Sarajeva or Anthony Pym), capable of 'fusilar' books, that is, of reproducing them without a formal acquisition of the rights. I will therefore proceed - in light of some translanguaging premises - to explore the paratextual apparatuses of works that feature rewriting, which are all characterized as products distinct: translations, revised translations, retranslations and reissues.
