Sumario:This critical note reviews three of the harangues of Jesús Urueta (1867-1920), which, from a distance, can be interpreted as a guide or even an ideology that the orator dictated to the Mexican literary youth of the early 20th century. Disseminated in magazines and newspapers of the time, the three speeches reviewed here, solemn and elevated in tone, were delivered in the public square to raise spirits and propose a way of being and influencing social life. The guiding axis here is reviewing how the speaker addresses said youth, the ideas that he believes are relevant or even obligatory for them, as well as the forms, themes and motifs used to make his proposals attractive to them. In addition, the approach intends to show some changes in the ideological stance of this writer who was part of the decadent group and, later, also of the Mexican Youth Athenaeum, while reflecting on the nature of his harangues.
