Chacel was the daughter of a teacher who sent her to live with her grandmother in Madrid. Madrid (pronounced in English in Spanish and colloquially in Spain) is the Capital and largest city of Spain. Chacel's move to Madrid occurred in 1908. Because of her weak health, she was home-schooled by her mother.
By 1909, Chacel's mother enlisted her at Madrid's Escuela de artes y oficios to study drawing, but, soon after, Chacel followed her teacher, Fernanda Francés, to the newly built Escuela del hogar y Profesional de la Mujer, also in Madrid. Drawing is a Visual art that makes use of any number of drawing instruments to mark a two-dimensional medium It was while in the latter school that Chacel began to take some feminist views. A school (from Greek σχολεῖον - scholeion) is an Institution designed to allow and encourage Students (or "pupils" Feminism is a discourse that involves various movements theories, and Philosophies which are concerned with the issue of Gender difference, advocate In 1915, Chacel, intrigued by the world of sculpturism, enrolled at the Escuela Superior de Bellas Artes de San Fernando, but she soon lost interest in the aforementioned topic and abandoned the school by 1918.
Chacel then went on to become a regular person at the Cafe Granja del Henar and at the Ateneo de Madrid. These two places were favorite locations for aspiring writers from all over Spain and other European countries. She delivered a controversial speech there, after a conference about women and their possibilities. Like much of the world at that era, machista views predominated in Spain, and Chacel's dialogue on that conference were considered off base or non sensical by many members of Madrid's society. Machismo is a prominently exhibited or excessive Masculinity.
Chacel, nevertheless, went on forward championing feminism as a new way to live for modern women, and, in 1921, she married a famous painter of the time, Timoteo Perez Rubio.

The Ultraist movement ( ultraísmo) was a literary movement born in Spain in 1918 with the declared intention of opposing Modernism In 1927, she and her husband returned to Madrid.
In 1930, Chacel wrote her first novel, "Estacion, Ida y Vuelta". A novel (from Italian novella, Spanish novela, French nouvelle for "new" "news" or "short story The Perez Rubio-Chacel couple had a child that year, Carlos, and Rosa Chacel dedicated herself to motherhood and to promoting her novel for the next three years.

Berlin is the capital city and one of sixteen states of Germany. Soon after her return to Spain, the Spanish civil war broke out. The Spanish Civil War was a major conflict in Spain that started after an attempted Coup d'état committed by parts of the army against the government of Pérez Rubio enlisted in the Republican Army and Chacel performed, among other things, as a nurse.
This new, political problem, forced Chacel to move multiple times with her son, and she lived in Barcelona, Valencia, Paris.

The next years Chacel lived in relative obscurity: a well known writer but one who had made no new projects in years. This changed in 1959, however, when she won a Guggenheim Fellowship, that allowed her to travel to New York City and return to writing. Guggenheim Fellowships are American grants that have been awarded annually since 1925 by the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation to those "who The City of New York Chacel worked in New York until 1961, when, with her home country living a calmed down social state, she returned to Spain. In May 1963, Chacel returned to Brazil, where she remained until 1970, when she returned to Spain for a short stay. She would live in Brazil for three more years, as, in 1973, she made her second return to her home country.
In 1977, her husband of 56 years died and Chacel, who was a very frequent flyer between Madrid and Rio de Janeiro, decided to stay in Spain for good. Rio de Janeiro ("River of January" ˈhiw dʒi ʒʌˈnejɾu in Brazilian Portuguese, /ˈriːoʊ di ʒəˈnɛroʊ/ in English is the second largest city of Brazil
She used her newly found status as a widow to try to rescue some of her old works and to write more novels.
Chacel was granted a Doctor Honoris Causa degree by the University of Valladolid (1989). An honorary degree or a degree honoris causa ( Latin: 'for the sake of the honour' is an Academic degree for which a university (or other degree-awarding Towards the end of her life, she won various prestigious awards, some of whom were given by King Juan Carlos. Early life Juan Carlos was born in Rome, where his grandfather Alfonso XIII of Spain lived in exile after the proclamation of the Second Spanish Republic In 1987, she received the "National Award of the Letters (writing)", an award usually reserved for the very best writers of Spain.
In 1990, she received the "Premio Castilla y Leon de las letras" ("Castilla y Leon award of the letters"), an award whose winners are chosen by the King.
She died peacefully in Madrid in 1994.
The Spaniard national airline Iberia Airlines - a company which Chacel perhaps saw as it grew - just like in Luisa Carvajal y Mendoza's case, decided to honor Chacel by naming an Airbus A340 jetliner airliner after her. This is a list of Airlines in operation, arranged alphabetically by country within their respective continents Iberia Líneas Aéreas de España SA (Iberia Airlines of Spain ( or Iberia as it is commonly known is the largest Airline of Spain, based Luisa Carvajal y Mendoza (1566 &ndash 1614 was a member of the Spanish nobility a family connection of the Duke of Lerma and religious poet and writer Airbus SAS (ˈɛərbʌs in English, Airbus2ogg|/ɛʁbys/]] in French, and /ˈɛːɐbʊs/ in German) is an aircraft manufacturing An airliner is a large Fixed-wing aircraft with the primary function of transporting paying passengers
Perhaps ironically, the "Rosa Chacel Airbus A340" flies very frequently between Madrid's Barajas International Airport and Buenos Aires' Ezeiza International Airport or Rio de Janeiro.
