She spent her years in exile in countries like France, Mexico, and Puerto Rico until returning to Madrid in 1984 after Franco's death.

Zambrano, a renowned philosopher and writer, made significant contributions to existential philosophy. Her profound insights into the human condition and the nature of art explored themes of exile, identity, and the search for truth.

What sets María Zambrano apart is her courage to express her ideas and critique the political climate through her writings and lectures, even in exile. She bridged the gap between philosophy and literature, becoming an influential figure in Spanish intellectual history. María Zambrano embodied values such as freedom, human rights, and intellectual integrity. She believed in the transformative power of thought and expression, inspiring others to challenge the status quo and strive for a more just society. In Zambrano's time, Spanish women faced limitations due to traditional gender roles and societal expectations. However, she defied these constraints and emerged as a prominent intellectual, paving the way for other women to assert themselves in the public sphere. Her achievements challenged prevailing notions of women's capabilities and played a vital role in shaping evolving roles for women in Spanish society.

Overall, Emily Dickinson remains a beloved and enigmatic figure in American literature. Her poetry continues to inspire and challenge readers, and her unique voice and style serve as a testament to the power of individual creativity and expression.
