Emilia Pardo Bazán is destined to keep her name close to that of Rosalía de Castro. As ambassadors of Galician letters, as feminists with an impact on Freemasonry (as Rosa Elvira Presmanes recounts in Women’s Freemasonry in Spain) and as people who give their name to the streets of Madrid.
Emilia Pardo Bazán is destined to keep her name very close to that of Rosalía de Castro.
Informa Somos Madrid, the local vertical of eldiario.es, that the years of fighting of the Neighborhood Association Islas de Peñagrande have paid off positively: they have achieved that the Galician professor, novelist, journalist, essayist has a street (a traffic circle, really) in the neighborhood they represent. And precisely in Rosalía de Castro street.
.
Recoge eldiario: “With this proposal, the Neighborhood Association Peñagrande Islands manages to reverse a historical debt of the city with the figure of Emilia Pardo Bazan, since it had no road to his name.
The proposal was approved unanimously by all political parties in the District Board of Fuencarral-El Pardo. And it will be from now on when the ambassador of the Galician letters will be represented in an area that could be baptized as a renewed or modernized barrio de las letras. And is that these streets are named after writers who do not appeal so much to the Golden Age as to the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and their multiple movements.
