Abstract

Rosalía de Castro (1837-1885) is undoubtedly an essential architect of the Contemporary Galician History. She was its voice and its principal interpreter. Her patriotism is united to her constant worry for womeńs condition and fate, which is a central topic throughout her work. Her feminism is correlative to her vital, philosophic and political position in life. It is necessary to puzzle out the reasons of a false legend that still surrounds her and bring her back to the truth of her production, her radicalism and her transgression as a freethinker and poet. She represents, in short, the beginning of Galician modernity.
