Mercedes Comaposada
Mercedes Comaposada Guillén (also Mercedes Guillén; Barcelona, 14 August 1901 – Paris, 11 February 1994) was a Spanish pedagogue, lawyer, and anarcho-feminist. With Lucía Sánchez Saornil and Amparo Poch y Gascón, she was the cofounder of the libertarian women's organization, Mujeres Libres.[1] She participated in the Spanish Revolution of 1936.[2] Apart from the numerous articles she wrote for the press, Comaposada published several works, some of them under the name of Mercedes Guillén, a name that had some notability in libertarian circles.
