Download or read book Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz written by Theresa A. Yugar and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2014-10-22 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz: Feminist Reconstruction of Biography and Text, Yugar invites you to accompany Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz, a seventeenth-century protofeminist and ecofeminist, on her lifelong journey within three communities of women in the Americas. Sor Juana's goal was to reconcile inequalities between men and women in central Mexico and between the Spaniards and the indigenous Nahua population of New Spain. Yugar reconstructs a her-story narrative through analysis of two primary texts Sor Juana wrote en sus propias palabras (in her own words), El Sueno (The Dream) and La Respuesta (The Answer). Yugar creates a historically-based narrative in which Sor Juana's sueno of a more just world becomes a living nightmare haunted by misogyny in the form of the church, the Spanish Tribunal, Jesuits, and more--all seeking her destruction. In the process, Sor Juana "hoists [them] with their own petard." In seventeenth-century colonial Mexico, just as her Latina sisters in the Americas are doing today, Sor Juana used her pluma (pen) to create counternarratives in which the wisdom of women and the Nahua inform her sueno of a more just world for all.
Download or read book Obras de sor Juana In s de la Cruz written by Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz and published by Linkgua. This book was released on 2010-08-31 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, nació entre 1648 y 1651 en México, conocido en la época como Nueva España. Murió el 17 de abril de 1695 víctima del tifus. Amante de su libertad y del estudio, y sin inclinación hacia el matrimonio, en 1667 ingresó en un convento de las Carmelitas descalzas de México. Pronto lo abandonó por problemas de salud. Ingresó finalmente en un convento de la Orden de San Jerónimo, donde vivió el resto de su vida. En esta orden Sor Juana tuvo la posibilidad de continuar sus estudios. Hizo investigaciones científicas, escribió diversos textos, compuso canciones, obras teatro, recibió visitas de amigos y tuvo tertulias con otros intelectuales y poetas, entre otras diversas actividades. En su celda, incluso, llegó a crear una importante biblioteca. Octavio Paz afirmaba que Sor Juana Inés se hizo monja para poder pensar. Y, teniendo en cuenta las palabras sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, puede que sea cierto. «Vivir sola... no tener ocupación alguna obligatoria que embarazase la libertad de mi estudio, ni rumor de comunidad que impidiese el sosegado silencio de mis libros.» Su erudición de carácter enciclopédico abarcaba tanto la retórica y la literatura como la teología o las matemáticas y las ciencias. En literatura, se le considera una auténtica representante del Barroco tardío español. Su obra literaria comprende sonetos, redondillas, décimas, romances, glosas, endechas, liras, poemas de amor, obras de teatro ( Los empeños de una casa y Amor es más laberinto) y algún escrito en prosa. La presente antología de Obras de sor Juana Inés de la Cruz contiene sonetos, redondillas, romances, endechas y liras de la autora.
Download or read book Sor Juana written by Gonzalez, Michelle A. and published by Orbis Books. This book was released on 2014-04-10 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, a seventeenth-century Mexican nun, is one of the most compelling figures of her age. A prolific writer, a learned scholar, and the first woman theologian of the Americas, she was also a defender of the dignity and rights of women in the midst of a fiercely patriarchal culture. In this study, Michelle Gonzalez examines Sor Juana’s contributions as a foremother of many currents of contemporary theology. In particular, in joining aesthetics with the quest for truth and justice, her work and witness suggest new avenues for Hispanic, feminist, and other liberation theologies.

Download or read book Sor Juana In s de la Cruz and the Gender Politics of Knowledge in Colonial Mexico written by Stephanie Kirk and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-06-23 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each of the book's five chapters evokes a colonial Mexican cultural and intellectual sphere: the library, anatomy and medicine, spirituality, classical learning, and publishing and printing. Using an array of literary texts and historical documents and alongside secondary historical and critical materials, the author Stephanie Kirk demonstrates how Sor Juana used her poetry and other works to inscribe herself within the discourses associated with these cultural institutions and discursive spheres and thus challenge the male exclusivity of their precepts and precincts. Kirk illustrates how Sor Juana subverted the masculine character of erudition, writing herself into an all-male community of scholars. From there, Sor Juana clearly questions the gender politics at play in her exclusion, and undermines what seems to be the inextricable link previously forged between masculinity and institutional knowledge. Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz and the Gender Politics of Knowledge in Colonial Mexico opens up new readings of her texts through the lens of cultural and intellectual history and material culture in order to shed light on the production of knowledge in the seventeenth-century colonial Mexican society of which she was both a product and an anomaly.
Download or read book Sor Juana In s de la Cruz written by Francisco Ramírez Santacruz and published by Ediciones Cátedra. This book was released on 2019-03-07 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La vida de sor Juana Inés de la Cruz estuvo llena de paradojas: nacida en la Nueva España, hija de una madre analfabeta, se encerraba por horas en una biblioteca durante su infancia; aunque no fue reconocida por su padre, gozó de fama y publicidad en la corte virreinal, donde se codeó con los más poderosos; fue una exégeta de la Biblia, si bien en su tiempo la teología estaba reservada al sexo masculino; inclinada a las letras humanas, los hombres de Iglesia más prominentes de México le recordaron con insistencia que su obligación era obedecer y vivir como buena esposa de Cristo. En el convento de San Jerónimo de la Ciudad de México, sor Juana intentó, con mayor o menor éxito, reconciliar sus dos personalidades, la de letrada y la de monja. Sor Juana encarnó en su siglo la libertad intelectual y una forma extraordinaria de ser mujer.
Download or read book Literary Self fashioning in Sor Juana In s de la Cruz written by Frederick Luciani and published by Bucknell University Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a close reading of selected poetic, dramatic, and prose works by Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz (1651-1695), with the intent of elucidating ways in which this important colonial Mexican intellectual and literary figure created a textual self through her writing. The book analyzes Sor Juana's complex, varied, and strategic process of literary self-fashioning, the self-promotional and self-protective functions that it served, and its consequences for readers of her and subsequent generations. The book situates its readings of Sor Juana's work against the background of the arc of her career - its ascent in the 1680s, to its descent and disintegration in the 1690s. The book does not try to reassemble the life of a literary figure, rather, it explores the traces of that figure's process of literary self-fashioning contextually and over time. Illustrated.

This book was released on 2014-09-29 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latin America's great poet rendered into English by the world's most celebrated translator of Spanish-language literature. Sor Juana (1651–1695) was a fiery feminist and a woman ahead of her time. Like Simone de Beauvoir, she was very much a public intellectual. Her contemporaries called her "the Tenth Muse" and "the Phoenix of Mexico," names that continue to resonate. An illegitimate child, self-taught intellectual, and court favorite, she rose to the height of fame as a writer in Mexico City during the Spanish Golden Age. This volume includes Sor Juana's best-known works: "First Dream," her longest poem and the one that showcases her prodigious intellect and range, and "Response of the Poet to the Very Eminent Sor Filotea de la Cruz," her epistolary feminist defense—evocative of Mary Wollstonecraft and Emily Dickinson—of a woman's right to study and to write. Thirty other works—playful ballads, extraordinary sonnets, intimate poems of love, and a selection from an allegorical play with a distinctive New World flavor—are also included.
