Francisca Bohigas: mujer católica, diputada y pedagoga (1928-1950)

Abstract

Francisca Bohigas has generally been perceived and analysed as the only conservative deputy in the Spanish Second Republic. However, her persistent attempts at transgressing and/or redefining the gender roles defended by the rights-wings parties are extremely interesting. Therefore, her life and thought can be key elements for the study of the construction of sexual difference in the Spanish conservative sectors of the first half of the twentieth century.
