BEDOYA SANCHEZ, Gustavo Adolfo. Representations of the Intellectual: El Nuevo Tiempo Literario in Colombia and its Relation to European Culture during the First Half of the 20th Century. []. , 59, pp.125-142. ISSN 0121-1617.  https://doi.org/10.7440/histcrit59.2016.07.

This article explores the diverse images that the staff of the Colombian literary supplement El Nuevo Tiempo Literario presented of the stereotype of "intellectual" during the first half of the 20th century. It analyzes said representations through the study and comparison of emblematic European figures and the analysis of their ideas in important historical moments such as the Dreyfus Case and the Great War, for example. The conclusion is that the self-representations of the supplement’s collaborators made it possible to distinguish the differences and similarities between writing, thinking, and "acting," i.e., between being literati, literary critics, and intellectuals committed to political action.
