Early literary works written in Spanish in what is today the American Southwest have been largely excluded from the corpus of American literature, yet these documents are the literary antecedents of contemporary Chicano and Chicana writing.This collection of essays establishes the importance of this literary heritage through a critical examination of key texts produced in the Southwest from 1542 to 1848. Drawing on research in the archives of Southwestern libraries and applying contemporary literary theoretical constructs to these centuriesold manuscripts, the authorsall noted scholars in Chicano literaturedemonstrate that these works should be recognized as an integral part of American literature.CONTENTSIntroduction: Reconstructing a Chicano/a Literary Heritage, by Mara HerreraSobekPart I: Critical ReconstructionShipwrecked in the Seas of Signification: Cabeza de Vaca's La Relacin and Chicano Literature, by Juan BruceNovoaDiscontinuous Continuities: Remapping the Terrain of Spanish Colonial Narrative, by Genaro PadillaA Franciscan Mission Manual: The Discourse of Power and Social Organization, by Tino VillanuevaThe Politics of Theater in Colonial New Mexico: Drama and the Rhetoric of Conquest, by Ramn GutirrezThe Comedia de Adn y Eva and Language Acquisition: A Lacanian Hermeneutics of a New Mexican Shepherds' Play, by Mara HerreraSobekPart II: Sources of ReconstructionPoetic Discourse in Prez de Villagr's Historia de la Nueva Mxico, by Luis LealFray Gernimo Boscana's Chinigchinich: An Early California Text in Search of a Context, by Francisco A.
