Identifier	Thesis 2028
Author	DePastino, Soledad G.
Title	Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz : la vida de una extraordinaria mujer vista a través de sus obras
Publisher	Central Connecticut State University
Date	2009
Resource Type	Master's Thesis
Notes	This is a study about the famous Mexican writer, Sor Juana de la Cruz who lived in the 17th Century. My study presents her life through an analysis of two of her main literary works: First Dream and The Answer to Sister Filotea. These works help to clarify and establish the nature of Sor Juana De La Cruz‘s passionate personality, character, and temperament. The study helps to solidly frame an understanding of the evolution of her educational process and reflection of her innermost being. The first chapter examines Sor Juana as a remarkably talented woman who was completely self-educated and became a master of many diverse academic disciples and lived most of her life as a nun. She became famous because of her extensive knowledge of Latin, Greek, Theology, Science, Writing, and Music. Her fame spread throughout the Spanish colonies as well as to Spain. Her contemporaries called her the ―"Tenth Muse" and the "Phoenix of Mexico". Presently, she is considered to be one of the great authors of the Golden Age of Spanish literature. The information is presented through her most important literary work ―"the Answer to Sister Filotea", which is considered to be the most authentic of her biographies. The second chapter displays an analysis of her famous poem, ―"First Dream". This work is considered to be one of the most important philosophical poems written in Spanish. According to her words, she wrote this poem for her own satisfaction in which she reveals her inner struggle. She describes how her soul was in so much agony that it strove to reach out of the confines of her body to search for knowledge.
