Today is the day against the gender violence and I thought I’d dedicate this post to some important Andalusian women.
Mariana de Pineda Muñoz
She was born on the 1st of September, 1804, in Granada.
She was a heroine of freedom. She helped her cousin to escape from prison where he was since 1827 for having participated in liberal conspiracies.
She was denounced for embroidering in a flag “Law, Freedom and Equality” and she was accused of participating in a liberal conspiracy.
In the end, she was sentenced to die in the “garrote vil” fashion on the 26th of May, 1831 in Granada.
Carmen de Burgos y Seguí, Colombine
She was born on the 19th of December, 1867 in Níjar (Almería). She was an activist, a writer, a translator and a defender of woman’s rights.
She got the degree of elementary education in 1895 and that of high education in 1898.
She was considered the first female professional journalist in Spain. She worked as an editor in a newspaper of Madrid (Diario Universal) in 1906.
She died on the 8th of October, 1932 in Madrid.
Victoria Kent Siano
She was born on the 3rd of March, 1892, in Málaga. She was a lawyer, the director general of prisons, a Spanish Republican in politics and a founder of the Feminist Lyceum Club.
She was the first Spanish woman that worked as a lawyer in the court. During the Civil War she had to escape into exile. She went to Paris and she was named First Secretary of the Spanish Embassy in the capital so she could continue taking care of refugee children.
She published works like: “Congreso de Praga” (1921), “Picasso: un destino sideral” and “Cuatro años en París” published in Spain in 1978
She died on the 25th of September, 1987 in New York.
María Zambrano Alarcón
She was born on the 22nd of April, 1904, in Vélez-Málaga. She was a Spanish thinker, a humanist and a philosopher. She studied philosophy at the University of Madrid. For her, philosophy was an event and not just a problem. One of her important topics is the analysis of “poetic reason”.
Important works by María Zambrano are: “Horizonte de liberalismo” (1930), “Filosofía y Poesía” (1939), “Pensamiento y Poesía en la vida española” (1939), “La agonía de Europa” (1945), “El sueño creador” (1965) y “De la aurora” (1986).
She received the Prince of Asturias Award in 1981 and the Cervantes Award in 1988. She died on the 6th of February, 1991, in Madrid.
If you want to know more about her, you can read the post below by MF.
I hope you like the post. If you know about other important Andalusian women you can tell us in comments and we can post it.
LOVING ANDALUCÍA 
Dear Melania,
Amazing work! Thanks! ❤ I really enjoyed it.
I checked your mistakes, but did not highlight them, so you need to compare this to your original. I hope you kept a copy! 😀
For your LoM (list of mistakes)
after preps, if you add a verb, it needs to be in the -ing form
At last = por fin! So I don't think that's what you meant! 😀
In the end, Finally, are options, depending on the text, but in bios when we are just going to say they died (passed away) saying Finally, or In the end sounds ackward! 😀
See you!
