Английская Википедия:Carmina Useros
Шаблон:Infobox person Carmina Useros Cortés (24 February 1928 – 23 March 2017) was a Spanish writer, ceramist, painter, and cultural manager. A researcher of the gastronomic, artisan, and cultural traditions of Albacete, she was one of the first women gastronomes in Spain.[1][2][3]
She was president and director of the Шаблон:Ill, a member of the Шаблон:Ill,[4] a founding member of the Castilian-Manchego Gastronomy Academy,[1] an honorary member of the Шаблон:Ill, a director of the Cueva de la Leña Art Gallery, and president of the Gastronomic Association that bears her name.
Biography
Carmina Useros earned a licentiate in teaching at the Normal School of Albacete. She studied Philosophy and Literature at the Complutense University of Madrid. In the 1950s she taught women to read and write. Until 1972 she cooked for the Шаблон:Ill. In the 1970s, she was the only woman to sign a letter of support for the anti-Francoist Шаблон:Ill.[1]
She married the ophthalmologist Manuel Belmonte González, and in 1968 they began touring the Province of Albacete, researching and recovering its cultural heritage.[5] She drew on these experiences to write publications such as the 1971 cookbook Mil recetas de Albacete y su provincia (A Thousand Recipes of Albacete and its Province)[6] and 1973's En busca de la Artesanía de Albacete (In Search of the Crafts of Albacete).[7] The couple later expanded their travels throughout the Iberian Peninsula and the Bealearic and Canary archipelagos. The materials that made up the Belmonte-Useros collection would be the foundation of a museum of clay crafts, the Шаблон:Ill in Chinchilla de Montearagón, an enclave in which clay had been worked since the Neolithic.[8] In 1970 they restored the Agujero de Chinchilla Caves, making them an art gallery.[2]
Useros developed an intense focus on the dissemination and reading of Don Quixote, organizing the "Ruta del Quijote" in 1971. In 1995 she began a cycle of readings of Quixote held every first Sunday of the month in La Mancha's village of Casa del Olivar, offering a Quixotic food to those who attended.
Useros and Belmonte had five children – Manuel, Pilar, José Pablo, the politician Шаблон:Ill, and the soprano Шаблон:Ill.[2]
Carmina Useros died in Albacete on 23 March 2017 after a long illness.[1][3]
