Warner’s article describes in detail the harsh economic conditions and powerful social restrictions in women’s lives in rural Spain. She notes that the marriage rites of the Spanish Church describe women as the property of their husbands. The article ends with a tribute to Spanish women fighting in the Civil War for Republicanism and against the tyranny of fascism.
