Behaviours that deviate from social norms are often labeled as scandalous, especially if their protagonists are women. In the 19th century, the hegemonic social model was that of separate spheres (public/private). However, some women manifested behaviours that defied tradition. Whether in their private or domestic life, in their activity in the cultural world, at university, in the workplace, and even in politics, they caused scandal and rejection. These behaviors were sometimes condemned by public morality and even by legislative and judicial authorities. This paper analyzes --through literary, newspaper, legislative, and judicial sources-- how nineteenth-century Spanish society received these changes, whether it accepted or opposed them, and how they influenced the model of the new woman and the debate on the woman question.

This article discusses the publication of the feminist periodical "El Gladiador del Librepensamiento," by Spanish intellectual and author Ángeles López de Ayala. The author comments on the representation of feminism in Spain during the early 20th century in the journal and describes the role and social conditions experienced by Spanish women at this time. She also considers the feminist movements and calls for gender equality promoted by the periodical in Spain, with a particular focus on the period 1914-1920.

This article seeks to highlight the slow process of education that women suffered due to the constraints of history. The study begins with the Public Education Act (1857) when the enrollment of girls in primary education becomes binding, and continuing achievements in education, through educational initiatives arising outside the school, from the Revolutionary Six-years period (1868-1874) to the Dictatorship of Miguel Primo de Rivera (1923-1930). From the mid-30's special attention is given to education in order to show two opposing schools models for women: the common school, public, secular pursued by the Second Republic and the national school, catholic and patriotic developed under Franco. After this last stage, the story gives way to the democratic school that allows female enrollment at all levels, and in equal opportunities. And the study concludes with a brief analysis of the education laws that were developed in subsequent years (1983-2006) to check the representation of women in the educational system.
