Buey develops some topics that were typical at that time, such as realism or the artist's professionalization. The authors have inserted different edition notes throughout the original text, in order to contextualize it, and they also have carried out a comparative work between the original version of the article, as it was sent by the author for its publishing, and the final version, which was published under a clandestinity situation. They try to pointing at the differences between both versions, differences that are quite substantial and indicative about internal discussions inside anti-Francoism movement.

A través del presente trabajo se recupera un artículo caído en el olvido del filósofo español Francisco Fernández Buey, que fue publicado originalmente en la revista clandestina Realidad, en 1967. El texto es una interesante muestra del debate estético y político que se producía en el marxismo de la época. A lo largo del texto el autor trata la relación de los escritores y artistas con el compromiso político, desplegando temáticas propias de la época tales como el realismo o la profesionalización del artista. Los editores han trufado el texto original con Notas de Edición a fin de contextualizar el escrito original, y han realizado una labor comparativa entre la versión enviada para su publicación y la que finalmente se publicó clandestinamente, señalando las diferencias entre ambas versiones, diferencias que en ocasiones son sustanciales y muy indicativas de las propias discusiones internas del antifranquismo.
