María Rosa de Gálvez

In Málaga, Galvez married a distant cousin on 1789, Captain José Cabrera y Ramírez, and the couple moved to Madrid perhaps before 1790, as her name was mentioned several times in the "Diario" of Gaspar Melchor de Jovellanos in that year.

Three years later, shortly after a marriage reconciliation and possibly leaving behind some of the husband's debts, the couple moved to Puerto Real in Cádiz, where they held various properties.

She wrote for Variedades de Ciencias, Literatura y Artes (1803-1805), the magazine published by Manuel José Quintana, as well as La Minerva o El Revisor General.

[3][4] Straddled with great economic hardships, she died prematurely, in Madrid, 2 October 1806, at the age of 38, and was buried in the San Sebastian Church.

She was attacked by considerations unrelated to her intrinsic literary merit (her feminism, her independence, her moral conduct, alien to the values of the time, as well as her relationship with Godoy).
