Descripción:In this article I will work the aesthetic characteristics in the play titled: Xicohténcatl, published in 1823, by José María Moreno Buenvecino. Based on the specialized studies of Romanticism by Isaiah Berlin, Antonio Candido, Cecilia Miranda Cárabes and Jorge Ruedas de la Serna, I will indicate what are the aesthetic features in this dramatic piece. Its author tried to vindicate the figure of this Tlaxcala hero, in the sense of looking for the roots of our Mexicanity, in those first years of independence of our nation, to focus and show the sense of “freedom of thought and feeling”. With this paper I intend to contribute to the letters of the 19th century, in our country, because this is a practically unknown work that I had the fortune to transcribe from the Reserved Fund of the National Library of Mexico. I hope it will become a slightly more well-known work, and given the case, I hope it is reissued, and above all, it is brought to the stage for its representation.
