Abstract

This article aims to show a hidden aspect of the history of Spanish Liberalism, namely, the participation of women in the conspiracy against the Absolute Monarchy during the Ominous Decade (1823–1833). It is focused also on the study of Spanish women in the Liberal exile, in France as well in England, during the same period.
