María Isidra de Guzmán y de la Cerda (1768–1803) was a Spanish noble and scholar. She is regarded to be the first female to receive a Doctor of Philosophy in Spain. She was the daughter of Diego Ventura de Guzmán y Fernández de Córdoba and María Isidra de la Cerda. She was given an unsually good education and described as the child prodigy of the king. She was given special royal dispensation from Charles III of Spain to study at the humanistic and literary faculty of the University of Alcalá, where she graduated in 1785 as a Doctor of Philosophy. She was named honorary professor of philosophy at the university and called Doctora de Alcala. She was elected an honorary member of the Real Academia de la Historia and Real Academia Española, the first female member of the Real Sociedad Económica Matritense de Amigos del País (1784), and decorated with the Junta de Damas Nobles de Honor y Mérito and the Orden de damas nobles de María Luisa. In 1787, she translated Columella from Latin. In 1789, she married Alfonso de Sousa, marqués de Guadalcázar. == References == * Theresa Ann Smit: The Emerging Female Citizen: Gender and Enlightenment in Spain * Romà de la Calle: La Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Carlos en la Valencia ilustrada * Robert A.
