The evolution of the image of Jose Antonio Primo de Rivera in Pilar Primo de Rivera's narrative

Abstract

After the First World War, the role of women in European so-cieties increased markedly and their position began to change fundamentally. In the context of the history of women's movements of the past century, the political figure of Franco Spain, Pilar Primo de Rivera, and the Women's Section of the Spanish Falange, which she founded and led, are important objects of study. This paper examines Pilar Primo de Rivera's ideas, specifically identifying the significance of José Antonio Primo de Rivera for the Women's Section and tracing its evo-lution in Pilar Primo de Rivera's writings.
