Esta mostra está dedicada á figura da precursora do feminismo María Vinyals y Ferrés (1875-ca. 1940), sobriña política do marqués de la Vega de Armijo, propietario do castelo de Soutomaior, onde ela naceu. A excelente educación que recibiu fíxoa coñecedora de varios idiomas. Escritora vocacional desde moi nova é autora de El castillo del Marqués de Mos en Sotomayor. Apuntes históricos, a máis completa monografía ata agora dedicada ao castelo, que saíu do prelo en 1904. Casou en primeiras nupcias con Juan Nepomuceno Jordán de Urríes, marqués de Ayerbe, do que recibiu o título co que foi coñecida na sociedade da época. Tras enviuvar casa de novo co médico de orixe cubana Enrique Lluria Despau, con quen funda un sanatorio en Soutomaior que acabou fracasando polo boicot da sociedade pontevedresa a causa da militancia socialista do matrimonio, que abandona as súas posesións galegas para viaxar a Cuba en busca de novas oportunidades. Son moi numerosas as achegas que a través da prensa fai na defensa dos dereitos da muller. Tamén foi unha prolífica conferenciante sobre o tema. Da súa vida e obra darase conta nesta exposición que estará formada fundamentalmente por documentación persoal (custodiada no propio Museo de Pontevedra na súa maior parte), bibliografía, imaxes gráficas e outros testemuños que axudarán a facer un percorrido pola súa biografía, froito do traballo de investigación das comisarias da exposición.

"The Waitangi Tribunal has declared that in the Treaty of Waitangi, Māori agreed to a dual-sovereignty partnership in New Zealand. The chiefs understood that the Governor would have authority over Europeans, whilst Māori would retain full sovereignty over themselves. But is this true? What does the Treaty actually say? And what do the records show of Māori understanding at the time the Treaty was debated? The history of Crown/ Māori conflict in our nation is also now being reinterpreted through the partnership prism. The new view is that the conflict reflected Māori pursuit of the dual-sovereignty partnership allegedly promised in the Treaty. But is this true? What were the conflicts really about? And what were Māori leaders saying about Crown sovereignty during these conflicts? ONE SUN IN THE SKY presents an evidence-based perspective on the question of sovereignty and the Treaty of Waitangi. Whilst a supporter of the Treaty settlements process, Ewen McQueen raises serious questions about the new paradigm of Treaty interpretation. In this book he reviews the historical evidence for how the Treaty was understood by Māori and Pakeha both at the time it was signed in 1840, and for the century which followed. The story he uncovers is rarely heard today. But it is a story which needs telling. Thoroughly researched and fully referenced, this book is a must-read for all New Zealanders. Not just because truth telling about our history is crucial to the future of race relations in our nation - but because our journey together has been a remarkable story"--Back story
