Abstract
This work aims to translate Maria Cegarra Salcedo's first published book of poetry,
Cristales mios, published in Spain in 1935. Maria was the first woman Chemist to gain
professionalism in Spain, and her poems express the awe and wonder felt at the
beginning of the 20th century, with its exciting scientific innovations, political
divisions, and modem expressions of art. This series of translations serves to provide
further public access to a faith-filled yet scientific woman's metaphors of the world.
