Obras selectas de la celebre monja de Mejico, sor Juana Ines de la Cruz…
"Obras Selectas de la Celebre Monja de Mejico, Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz" is a comprehensive collection of the works of the renowned Mexican nun and poet, likely written in the late 19th century. The book includes a biography and a critical examination of her literary contributions, showcasing the profound intellect and artistic talent of Sor Juana. The collection explores themes such as women's rights, intellect, and the societal limitations placed
on women, as exemplified through the life and work of its main subject, Sor Juana Ines. At the start of this compilation, the author Juan Leon Mera reflects on the unjust disdain historically directed at women's intellectual abilities. He recounts the early life of Sor Juana, detailing her exceptional intelligence from a young age and her deep passion for knowledge. The narrative sets forth a portrait of Sor Juana as a gifted and passionate individual whose literary works not only express her thoughts on love and womanhood but also challenge the societal norms of her time. The opening chapters lay the groundwork for a deeper exploration of her poetry and prose, positioning her as a pivotal figure in both Mexican literature and the broader movement for women's rights and recognition in the intellectual realm.
