Hijas olvidadas: Two Contemporary Plays by Hispanic Women Writers
brings together two compelling dramas from Spain and Argentina. Una
estrella by Paloma Pedrero and paula.doc by Nora Rodriguez both
feature spirited female protagonists who explore their painful
pasts to gain self-understanding. Common themes of parent/child
relationships and issues of identity and memory engage readers and
arouse their empathy. Moreover, Hijas olvidadas adds missing female
voices to the Spanish curriculum. Aimed at high intermediate and
advanced students of Spanish, Hijas olvidadas seeks to bridge the
gap between language and literature courses with communicative
skill-building activities and creative approaches to literary
analysis. Students debate issues, discuss dramatic techniques, and
create scenes that go beyond the plays.

The overland trails in the 1860s witnessed the creation of stage
stations to facilitate overland travel. These stations, placed
every twenty or thirty miles, ensured that travelers would be able
to obtain grain for their livestock and food for themselves. They
also sped up the process of mail delivery to remote Western
outposts. Tragically, the easing of overland travel coincided with
renewed conflicts with the Cheyenne and other Plains Indians. The
massacre of Black Kettle's people at Sand Creek instigated two
years of bloody reprisals and counterreprisals. "Amid this turmoil
and change, these daring women continued to build on the example
set by earlier women pioneers. As Harriet Loughary wrote upon her
arrival in California, "[after] two thousands of miles in an ox
team, making an average of eighteen miles a day enduring privations
and dangers . . . When we think of the earliest pioneers . . . we
feel an untold gratitude towards them."
