Libertad Interior. Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz (Inner Freedom. Joan Agnes of the Cross) - Marcela Magdaleno

Con este libro las autoras se integran al grupo Universal de las confidentes de Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz, al presentar mas que un relato biografico o un ensayo erudito, la contestacion a las interrogantes que inquietan a los investigadores sobre el caracter y temperamento de esta mujer y de las circunstancias en que vivio. Conforme pasan las paginas, y como en un libro de aventuras, Juana Ines, la heroina, nos sorprende con actitudes serenas y alegres o con arrebatos de rebeldia o argumentando sobre valores teologicos o con sus poemas, que iluminan. Sister Juana Inés de la Cruz, (English: Joan Agnes of the Cross), was a self-taught scholar and poet of the Baroque school, and nun of New Spain. Although she lived in a colonial era when Mexico was part of the Spanish Empire, she is considered today a Mexican writer, and stands at the beginning of the history of Mexican literature in the Spanish language. This book evokes her life, like a novel, showing the real Sor Juana Ines, the religious woman, writer and reader.
