Dotting the history of Catalonia are individuals who have left an indisputable mark on the culture, thanks to their uncommon rebellious spirit. One such historical figure was Ermesinde of Carcassonne, a regent who ruled in Catalonia during the last quarter of the 10th century. Life’s circumstances brought her to the height of power, where she played a role that was by no means easy for a woman of her time. All the same, her intelligence, guile and wit enabled her to operate perfectly. No doubt, she was one of those captivating female characters that occasionally crop up in history, stirring up the society of her time.
