Description
Summary:This essay focuses on Patricia Zangaro's A propósito de la duda (2000), and examines the play's role in the Madres and Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo's search for the abducted children of parents subjected to forced disappearances. An analysis of the Brecthtian's techniques employed by the dramatist helps to explain not only the ways in which the play engages its audience in political and ethical issues, but the manner it elicits the exercise of the "right to truth and identity."
