Christine Arkinstall's historical and literary study of female
freethinking intellectuals in fin-de-siecle Spain examines the
contributions of three intellectuals, Amalia Domingo Soler, Angeles
Lopez de Ayala, and Belen Sarraga, to the development of feminist
consciousness and democracy. These women wrote for, edited, and
published radical and feminist periodicals that, until now, have
been left unstudied. This significant gap in the scholarship has
left us without an accurate sense of Spanish women's involvement in
the public realm. Spanish Female Writers and the Freethinking
Press, 1879-1926 recovers the lost history and literary
contributions these women made to the so-called Generation of 1898.
Using their extensive published works, Arkinstall not only
illuminates the lives of Domingo Soler, Lopez de Ayala, and
Sarraga, but traces the connections between feminism, freethinking,
republicanism, freemasonry, anarchism, and socialism. By placing
these women's work in the broader literary, social, and political
context of the period, Arkinstall's study makes a major
contribution to our understanding of the central role of women in
late-nineteenth and early-twentieth-century democracy in Spain.
