Pujadas (2000), the construction of memory, along with the forms of affirmation of individual identity, reflected in the autobiographies and other personal documents show a plurality of voices and sensibilities in the interpretation of social reality. The results demonstrate the belligerence of women in historical times, the social constraints that hinder their limelight in the psychosocial development of various environments. The facilitating elements lived as a country that encourage developmental opportunities and spaces for women to take on roles that transcend the traditionally assigned, perpetuated roles by social institutions such as family, school and religion.
