Federico Urales (actually: Juan Montseny; born April 19, 1864 in Reus , † March 12, 1942 in Salon (Dordogne) ) was a Catalan author and militant anarchist . He was the father of Federica Montseny , Spain's first female minister.

Life

As a tunnel worker, Urales joined the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party in Spain in 1885 and became its general secretary just a few years later (1888). Urales was married to Teresa Mañé Miravet , known by her pseudonym "Soledad Gustavo". Both were personalities of the anarchist movement in Reus. Urales later fled into exile in London. On his return from there he founded the daily La Revista Blanca in Madrid in 1898 . After the coup's victory over the republic in the Spanish Civil War , he had to flee into exile in France in 1939 and died there three years later in an internment camp.
