| description | Objective: This article examines the life and work of Margarita Praxis Muñoz, the first female graduate from the Universidad de San Marco with a bachelor's degree in Science and Letters, to later become a Peruvian physician, scientist, feminist and progressive who made her life pilgrimage through four countries of the Southern Cone.
Originality/support: A forgotten character in her country who starts to be appreciated at the end of the 19th century by several literary women who analyzed her novel in particular. The originality of this study lies in the focus of her life in Argentina, where she ended her days.
Method: Biographical. The methodology followed in this work consisted of an analysis of her intellectual production in relation to her academic training in order to observe her ideas and application in context.
Strategies/ Data Collection: For this biography we have made use of her own work and that of the researchers who have studied her, they are listed in the attached bibliography. Due to the scarcity of available data, interviews were conducted with Argentine historians of the Santiago region where she ended her days as a physician in the quebracho plantations.
Conclusions: The character studied will allow us to delve into the historical and educational context of the women from the places she lived in and will show us her active participation in different fields. In this way, we go through her interests and those of the people she shared her life with. We approach the problems of her time, the history of ideas, and the daily life of the first women who dared to enter the world of men. Forgotten for a long time, the value of Margarita Praxis Muñoz is acknowledged today, in this article. |

Objetivo: El presente artículo examina la vida y obra de Margarita Praxis Muñoz, primera egresada de la Universidad de San Marcos como bachiller en Ciencias y Letras, luego médica, científica, feminista y progresista peruana que peregrinó su vida por cuatro países del cono sur. Originalidad/aporte: Un personaje olvidado en su país y puesto en valor a fines del siglo XIX por varias literatas que analizaron su novela particularmente. La originalidad está en rescatar su paso por la Argentina donde termino sus días. Método: Biográfico. La metodología seguida en este trabajo ha consistido en analizar su producción intelectual contextualizándola en relación con su formación académica para observar sus ideas y aplicación. Estrategias/recolección de información: Para realizar esta biografía nos hemos valido de su propia obra y de los investigadores que se ocuparon de ella quienes figuran en la bibliografía anexa. Debido a que los datos disponibles eran escasos, se realizaron entrevistas con historiadores argentinos de la región santiagueña donde terminó sus días como medica en los obrajes de quebracho. Conclusiones: El personaje estudiado nos permitirá ahondar en el contexto histórico y educativo de las mujeres en los lugares que vivió y nos mostrará su activa participación en diferentes temas. De esta forma, podemos atravesar sus intereses y los de los que compartieron su vida, acercarnos a los problemas de su época, a la historia de las ideas y a la vida cotidiana de las primeras mujeres que se atrevieron ingresar al mundo de los hombres. Olvidada por mucho tiempo hoy la valoramos en este artículo. Objetivo: Este artigo analisa a vida e a obra de Margarita Praxis Muñoz, a primeira licenciada em Ciências e Letras pela Universidade de San Marcos, mais tarde médica, cientista, feminista e progressista peruana que passou a sua vida em quatro países do Cone Sul. Originalidade/contribuição: Personagem esquecida no seu próprio país e destacada no final do século XIX por várias escritoras que analisaram o seu romance em particular. A originalidade está em resgatar a sua passagem pela Argentina, onde terminou os seus dias. Método: Biográfico. A metodologia seguida neste trabalho consistiu em analisar a sua produção intelectual, contextualizando-a em relação à sua formação académica, de modo a observar as suas ideias e a sua aplicação. Estratégias/ coleta de datos: Para a realização desta biografia recorremos à sua própria obra e aos investigadores que sobre ela se debruçaram, os quais constam da bibliografia em anexo. Devido à escassez de dados disponíveis, foram realizadas entrevistas com historiadores argentinos na região de Santiago, onde ela terminou seus dias como médica nas plantações de quebracho. Conclusões: A personagem estudada permitir-nos-á aprofundar o contexto histórico e educativo da mulher nos locais onde viveu e mostrar-nos-á a sua participação ativa em diferentes questões. Desta forma, podemos percorrer os seus interesses e os daqueles que partilharam a sua vida, abordar os problemas do seu tempo, a história das ideias e o quotidiano das primeiras mulheres que ousaram entrar no mundo dos homens. Há muito esquecida, hoje valorizamo-la neste artigo.
