by Juana Inés de la Cruz (Author)

De la pluma de Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, un extraordinario documento de feminismo avant la lettre que reclama, en el siglo XVII, el acceso de las mujeres al saber.

A lo largo de la historia, algunos libros han cambiado el mundo. Han transformado la manera en que nos vemos a nosotros mismos y a los demás. Han inspirado el debate, la discordia, la guerra y la revolución. Han iluminado, indignado, provocado y consolado. Han enriquecido vidas, y también las han destruido. Taurus publica las obras de los grandes pensadores, pioneros, radicales y visionarios cuyas ideas sacudieron la civilización y nos impulsaron a ser quienes somos.

Este extraordinario documento de feminismo avant la lettre se compone de dos cartas que reclaman, ya en el siglo XVII, el acceso de las mujeres al saber. Sor Juana, que usó el hábito para acercarse a las letras, escribe con fuerza y encanto, y estos textos, en parte autobiográficos, son de una riqueza impresionante y sorprenden al conectar con muchas de nuestras preocupaciones actuales.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

From Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, an extraordinary feminist document avant la lettre demanding women's access to knowledge.

Throughout history, some books have changed the world. They have transformed the way we see ourselves and others. They have inspired debate, discord, war and revolution. They have brought enlightenment, outrage, provocation and comfort. They have enriched lives and destroyed them. Taurus publishes the works of great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries whose ideas have shaken civilization and driven us to be who we are.

This extraordinary feminist document avant la lettre is composed of a pair of seventeenth-century letters demanding that women have access to knowledge. Sor Juana, who became a nun to devote herself to study, writes with a strong and captivating style. Part of the richness of these semi-autobiographical texts is their surprising connection with modern-day concerns.

Author Biography

Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz (1651-1695) fue la exponente novohispana más importante de México. Escribió poesía, teatro y prosa. En 1669 comenzó una vida monástica, que continuaría por el resto de su vida, lo cual le permitió dedicarse por completo al estudio y a la escritura. Ya que pertenecía a la corte de los virreyes, tuvo una serie de mecenas que le permitieron publicar sus primeras obras. Gracias a su talento, así como a las controversias que muchos de sus textos generaron en su círculo social, se volvió, junto a autores como Sigüenza y Góngora y Ruiz de Alarcón, una de las poetas más admiradas de la Colonia. Entre sus libros destacan Respuesta a sor Filotea de la Cruz, El divino Narciso, Los empeños de una casa y Amor es más laberinto. Murió a causa de una epidemia.
