- Title
EMPRESARIAS Y AGENTES CULTURALES DEL SIGLO XIX. EL MODELO DE FAUSTINA SÁEZDE MELGAR (1834-1895).

- Abstract
This article discusses the cultural, editorial and business activities carried out by the writer Faustina Sáez de Melgar. The study of as yet unpublished documents from her personal archive enables a renewed approach to her figure and her professional work, revealing her true dimension as a woman, writer, journalist, entrepreneur and cultural activist that far exceeds her traditional and reductionist classification as a typical mid-nineteenth-century woman writer. The clarification of important personal and professional data shows her as an independent enterprising woman who, in parallel to her literary work, assumed, throughout her life, challenges in traditionally masculine fields, new for a woman of her time.
