AB This chapter pays tribute to the academic, institutional, and activist trajectory of Margarita María Birriel Salcedo, a pioneering voice in feminist historiography and women’s and gender studies in Spain. It highlights her contributions to the study of women’s work, domestic economies, material culture, and the Morisco question, as well as her methodological commitment to combining microhistory with broader structural analysis. The text also emphasizes her role as a founder of the Institute for Women’s and Gender Studies and the HUM603 Research Group on Women’s Studies, her impact as a critical and transformative teacher, and her ability to mentor new generations of feminist researchers. Beyond academia, her active involvement in feminist movements, neighborhood associations, trade union struggles, and international research networks reflects a life devoted to weaving knowledge, memory, and social transformation. Birriel’s legacy is presented as both scholarly and deeply human: an enduring network of memory, care, and critical thought.
