Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz (1648-1695) was a renowned Mexican writer, philosopher, and poet of the Baroque period. Known for her intellectual prowess and sharp wit, she became one of the most important figures of the Spanish Golden Age literature.
She was a nun in the Convent of San Jerónimo in Mexico City, where she dedicated herself to studying and writing. Sor Juana’s work often challenged the societal norms of her time, particularly regarding the role of women and education. Her writings include poetry, essays, and plays, with her most famous work being the "Carta Atenagórica," a defense of women's right to education. Her legacy continues to inspire discussions about gender, education, and the role of women in literature.
