Considered by many as one of the greatest Latin American poets, and an early fighter for women’s rights, Sor Juana was born an illegitimate child and raised near Mexico City. Consumed by a love of Wisdom, but as a woman of her time discouraged in pursuit of scholarship, she struggled with her gender, knowing males had no doors barred. Entering the nunnery as a discalced Carmelite, she later transferred to the Hieronymites.
