Hello! In the city of Madrid you may find me under the name The Walker. I was built in 1996 00:00:19
by Roberto Manzano Hernández, one of Spain's greatest sculptors. He's known for his white 00:00:25
marble statues that recall the aesthetics of Renaissance and the mannerism. He's a master 00:00:30
of expressing movement in his works, which is reflected on me since I started turning back 00:00:36
the way i came his works showcase an impressive range of emotion from absolute happiness to saddest 00:00:44
melancholy i'm placed in a very important cultural district of madrid in the 80s it was one of the 00:00:51
representative districts of la movida madrilena or the madrilenian scene this movement emerged 00:00:58
during spain's transition from a dictatorship to democracy and focuses on women's rights and 00:01:04
support of the lgbtq plus community even though it originated in madrid it eventually spread to 00:01:09
other bigger spanish cities such as barcelona or bilbao influenced by punk rock and other art 00:01:15
movements such as dadaism or futurism la movida is characterized by its aesthetic flaunting bright 00:01:21
colors heavy makeup and provocative clothing it was also tied to an increase of drug use and 00:01:27
sexual expression built as a representation of this time of change and empowerment we can see 00:01:33
some of these features directly on me. My voluminous hair reflects typical Mobeda fashion 00:01:38
and the fact that I'm scantily clad in a tight skirt and small top only emphasizes this point. 00:01:43
Unfortunately, due to my presence in a district that suffers from frequent vandalism caused 00:01:49
by its controversial history and silly alternative opinion on art, I have suffered 00:01:57
several acts of vandalism in 2009 my arm was ripened off and a few years later my head was 00:02:04
turned of my body after the behaving my body was left on the ground my face has been painted as 00:02:14
well as my body i have been turned burning with cigarettes and even run over you will currently 00:02:24

Nevertheless, I do only made reforms in the city of Madrid, but in the whole country. 00:04:47
I created the first Spanish postal service, the Bank of Spain, and a road network around 00:04:53
Madrid, to make of Madrid the central city of Spanish commerce. 00:05:00
I am in a reproduction of the statue of Carlos III, attributed to John Pascal de Mena, made 00:05:05

was in charge of the architect jose maria juraso and jose barrado technical architect 00:05:32
both from the Department of Building Conservation of the City Council. 00:05:39
Hello, my name is Miguel Cervantes Zavalletla and I'm going to present myself. First of all, 00:05:44
I was born on September 29, 1547, in Alcalá de Henares, in Madrid. 00:05:51
I was an early modern Spanish writer who participates in the transformation 00:05:59
of the Spanish language by taking part in golden age of literature in Spain 00:06:05
during the 16th century. I am best known for my novel Don Quixote, the first great 00:06:12
novel of the world literature. This novel is about the adventures of a member of 00:06:19
the lowest nobility called Don Quixote who reads many war novels and loses his 00:06:25
mind. This book is the 10th most translated book in history. Apart from this phenomenal success, 00:06:31
I have written many famous books like La Galatea that tells the story of many different relatable 00:06:41
characters who express their troubled romances within the rhythm of poetry. Although I am famous, 00:06:48
my life has been full of adventures one day in the battle of Lepanto I lost my right hand and 00:06:57
with it the ability to write so I had to learn again how to write with my left hand after this 00:07:08
after this event people started to call me El Monco de Lepanto and they created they created 00:07:17
me another name which comes from the arabic saibetra. I really liked to 00:07:26
travel but once when I was returning from Naples to Spain I was captured by 00:07:35
barbarian pirates who thought I was important because of some letters of 00:07:42
recommendation that I had received from some Turks. They kept me five years jailed 00:07:47
in LG. Afterwards, I came back to Spain and it was difficult to find a job but I 00:07:54
found one to provide for my needs. However, I was stuck in poverty and I 00:08:04
eventually died the 22nd of April of 1616. It's coinciding with Shakespeare's 00:08:12
death because he died the day after. In honor of this, we celebrate the 00:08:19
International Book Day on this date. I finish with my favorite quote 00:08:26
El que lee mucho y anda mucho, ve mucho y sabe mucho. Which means the one who reads a lot 00:08:32
and works a lot, sees a lot and knows a lot. Thank you for listening to me and I 00:08:41
hope I have learned something to you all. As Queen Elizabeth II of Spain I stand 00:08:49
before you today reflecting not only on my personal journey but also on the tumultuous 00:08:55
political landscape that has defined my reign from the moment of my ascension to the throne 00:09:00
i have been entangled in the webs of sharing regimes each with its own set of challenge and 00:09:06
implications i was born the 10th of october of 1830 and i just sent the throne of spain on september 00:09:11
of 1833, after the death of my father, without having yet reached the age of three. 00:09:19
My birth and subsequent ascension to the throne caused the beginning of a long dynastic conflict, 00:09:26
since my uncle, the infanta, Carlos Maria Isidoro de Borbón, during my early years 00:09:33
of reigns, the regime was assumed by my mother. 00:09:39
My reign began amidst the backdrop of the Carles Wars, and then my rule is paying witness 00:09:42
the implementation of the Spanish Constitution of 1837, a pivotal moment that laid the groundwork 00:09:48
for a more democratic and representative government. However, the road to constitutional 00:09:54
monarchy was fraught with obstacles and threats interesting, and political rivalries hindered 00:10:00
the progress of reform. Despite my efforts to modernize and advance Spain, I found myself 00:10:07
embroiled in controversies and scandals that undermined public confidence in my leadership. 00:10:12
The whispers of corruption and nepotism grew louder casting shadows over my reign 00:10:19
and fleeing discontent among the populace. Amidst the turmoil I faced numerous challenges 00:10:25
to my authority including the glorious revolution of 1868 which ultimately led to my fourth 00:10:32
abdication and exile. The transition to the first Spanish Republic marked new 00:10:40
chapters in Spain's history characterized by uncertainty and upheaval. 00:10:47
Yet, despite the trials and tribulations of my reign, I remain steadfast in my 00:10:52
commitment to the welfare Spain and its people. I believe that my legacy will 00:10:58
endure not only as the first woman to ascend the throne, but also as a symbol 00:11:03
resilience and perseverance in the face of adversity. As I look to the future, I am hopeful 00:11:07
that Spain will continue to progress towards a more just and equitable society, guided by the 00:11:13
principles and democracies of human rights. My reign may have come to an end, but the spirit 00:11:19
of reform and renewal that defined it will live on, inspiring future generations to strive for 00:11:27
a better tomorrow. Buenos dias, mis amigos. My name is Julia. I'm a proud statue created by Antonio 00:11:34
Santil Benito and I'm inspired by his culture. I'm living against the wall of the Palacio de Agüez 00:11:40
in the street place where the Central University of Madrid used to be and where I used to study. 00:11:46
Nowadays it may seem normal to see women study at a university but it wasn't always like that. 00:11:52
Back in the days it was super hard for a woman to get higher education. For example, the first 00:11:58
The Spanish woman to get her degree was Concepcion Arenal in 1848, more than 600 years after the first Spanish university was established. 00:12:03
My story is quite similar to hers. Someone might think I am inspired by her, but that's not true. 00:12:12
We both had to be dressed up as a man in order to attend university, otherwise they wouldn't let us in. 00:12:18
She was a pioneer of feminism in Spain, which wasn't very well accepted by the study of the 19th century. 00:12:23
She wasn't supported in her decision to attend university by the authorities, and not even by her own mother. 00:12:29
In order to be accepted to Madrid University, she had to pass an exam three times more demanding than her male peers. 00:12:35
Our situation was really terrible, but I've been standing here for a long time, 00:12:44
and I'm very pleased to see the progress our society has made since the days of Concepcion. 00:12:49
In my case, 66% of all university students are women, however, that doesn't mean we 00:12:54
achieve absolute gender equality. 00:13:01
There is a lot of work to be done in the future. 00:13:03
There are still some fields of study with predominant gender. 00:13:07
For example, here in Spain, 70% of the engineering students are men, and on the other hand, in 00:13:12
the health science, women are prevalent by 70%. 00:13:18
in my twins we can reach full equality in every single field hello i'm marie blanca and i traveled 00:13:22
all around madrid i was commissioned to a sculptor of classical statues in 1625 ludovic jockey who 00:13:30
brought me from florence and my purpose was to be part of a fountain at puerta del sol but after 00:13:37
After several transformations to my fountain, I was finally moved to the Plaza de las Descarzas 00:13:45
in 1832, but they moved me again in 1892 because they replaced me. 00:13:53
After my replacement, I had to stay in municipal warehouse until 1912 when I was placed in 00:13:59
El Retiro Park, but again I was removed to locate me on Paseo de Rigolitos in 1962. 00:14:07
I was there for 22 long years until I was victim of significant damage due to an act 00:14:17
of vandalism, so I had to be reported. 00:14:25
the restoration was complete i was placed in the lobby of a main staircase of the casa de la villa 00:14:30
in 1985 where i had remained since then and something i don't like is that people always 00:14:38
confuse me with my sister that i situated that is situated in portalesol she has seen a lot of 00:14:47
things like the 15 m and many celebrations of the new years good morning my name is fortunato and i 00:14:55
am the representative of all the coupon sellers who for decades distributed it look in the main 00:15:04
streets of the country i'm going to tell you a little about 11 the once national national 00:15:10
organization of spanish blind people is a remarkable institution with a rich history 00:15:17
Founded in 1938, its primary purpose is to improve the quality of life for visually impaired 00:15:25
individuals in Spain. The ONCE is committed to promoting social inclusion and empowerment for 00:15:32
the blind and visually impaired community. It provides essential services, education, 00:15:40
and vocational training to enhance their independence and self-sufficiency. 00:15:47
One of the most recognizable aspects of the Wannsee is its lottery. 00:15:52
The famous coupon, daily lottery tickets, is sold by the blind vendors across Spain. 00:16:00
These vendors, known as vendedores, play a crucial role in the Wannsee's mission. 00:16:06
By selling lottery tickets, they earn a livelihood and contribute to the organization's funding. 00:16:13
Additionally, the ONCE offers a wide range of services, including education, 00:16:21
employment support, assistive technology, and social programs. It actively supports research 00:16:26
into visual impairment and advocates for equal rights. In 1988, the ONCE established the ONCE 00:16:33
Foundation for Cooperation and Social Inclusion, focusing on disability-related projects. 00:16:43
In summary, the ONCE is not just about lottery tickets. 00:16:50
It's a beacon of hope, resilience, and progress 00:16:54
for blind and visually impaired individuals in Spain. 00:16:58
My name is Susana. 00:17:04
My dad is probably a sculptor, and I am a student. 00:17:06
I study at La Palma School of Arts, 00:17:10
which is really close from here, 00:17:14
and I'm going to take some classes. 00:17:16
Therefore, I carry a portfolio under my shoulder. 00:17:20
I also carry a backpack where I keep my snacks, 00:17:24
pencils, notebooks, and books. 00:17:27
Nowadays, I have graffities, paintings all over my face, 00:17:30
but I consider that as a work of art, 00:17:35
so I'm not mad at all. 00:17:38
However, I hope that somebody will remove it someday 00:17:40
since my classmates can't recognize me. 00:17:44
The statue of me is located in Malasaña, which nowadays is more or less a student with neighborhood cafes, bakeries, clubs, etc. 00:17:46
But during the last century, this particular neighborhood changed a lot. 00:17:59
Malasaña is nothing like it was in the 80s. 00:18:05
the neighborhood was known for being a place of conflict with a high crime rate and significant 00:18:09
drug presence but it was also the epicenter of young of youth entertainment and life light 00:18:15
ultimately the place where much of that would later become known as the movida madrileña 00:18:24
was for great the movida madrileña was a counter cultural moment that emerged in madrid today 00:18:30
during the early years of the transition of post franco spain which spread the other province 00:18:37
under the generic name of movida until its end in the mid-1980s in 1987 city of madrid started 00:18:43
a rehabilitation plan in order to clean up and secure an urban city center and malazana was one 00:18:53
of those neighborhoods which were part of this program and so sidewalks were repaired trees were 00:19:01
planted curbs were lowered and the number of parking lots were was reduced so in other words 00:19:08
that decrease a number of cars in the city center enhanced the well-being of people and also 00:19:17
increased number of pedestrians in this area fortunately music clubs from 80s didn't stop 00:19:24
working but now those clubs primarily featured indie genre artists therefore people who are 00:19:31
dressed in leather hello my name is sancho panza i'm from a small village of la mancha in spain 00:19:39
i'm don quixote's choir in the novel of don quixote written by miguel de cervantes since 00:19:45
Since 1929, I appeared as a statue in La Plaza de España, and I was created by Rafael Martínez Zapatero and Lorenzo Curat Valera. 00:19:52
Hola, my name is Don Quijote. I'm a novel kind, and I want to save the world and serve my nation on my adventures. 00:20:04
I was written by Miguel de Cervantes. 00:20:11
In the Plaza de España, in Madrid, is standing the statue of me on my horse and my servant, Sancho Panza, on his donkey created by Rafael Martínez Zapatero and Lorenzo Cuyán Valera, and it was opened in 1929. 00:20:13
Do you remember anything about our adventure? 00:20:28
Oh yes, I wanted to become a fearless knight. 00:20:32
Sure. Everything started when you recruited me to become your squire. You were a big dreamer with a lot of ambitions, constantly fantasizing about saving the world and saving our nation. 00:20:36
We have started all with overwhelming battles against giants. 00:20:50
You mean those windmills which you thought were giants. What an adventure we had. 00:20:55
Did you know that our story has been a big influence on the literary? 00:21:03
Yes, in fact, it is one of the most translated stories of all time and have been a source 00:21:07
of inspiration for the Trois Mousquetaires and Cyrano de Bergerac. 00:21:14
It also helped create some English idioms and extend the vocabulary. 00:21:21
To sum up, it's regarded as the first modern novel. 00:21:26
Hasta Nunca! 00:21:30
See you in heaven! 00:21:31
