Sobre este artículo
Rare early edition of these posthumously published poems of Sor Juana, the "Mexican Phoenix," a philosopher, poet, book collector, and nun who contributed to the Spanish Golden Age. The illegitimate daughter of a Spanish captain, Sister Juana grew up in her maternal grandfather's hacienda among his considerable library. Eschewing marriage, she entered a Hieronymite convent in 1669. Skilled in both Latin and Nahuatl as well as theology and logic, her radical thinking on church hierarchy and women's roles caused the Catholic Church to publish a letter in 1690 demanding that she focus on prayer rather than philosophy. She was eventually forced to sell her extensive library of some 4,000 volumes as well as her musical and scientific instruments. Plague struck her convent in April 1695, and she was among the many victims. This work was first printed in Madrid in 1700 by Manuel Ruiz de Murga, as Vol. III of the author's complete works. Nobel laureate Octavio Paz was largely responsible for bringing her work to modern readers' and critics' attention with his 1989 book Sor Juana: Or, The Traps of Faith.
