### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Excellent description of Sor Juana and her world
  

*by G***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 1, 2019*

Excellent examination of what is known about this fabulous Mexican poet whose works still resonate 300 years after her death. As one of Mexico’s greatest intellectuals and literary figures, Paz provides analysis and insight into her writing as well.Most important, though, is the author’s explanation of Sor Juana’s predicament living as a creative genius and proto feminist in a place and time in which women had few options and little power. Once you know about the world of Nueva España in the Baroque era you can better appreciate her courage and cleverness in surviving and, for a long time, flourishing in the restricted authoritarian environment.The only problem for the general reader is that Paz is sometimes abstruse and often assumes the reader will understand quotes in French, German or  other languages. He probably wrote this for other scholars and wanted to impress them. He also spends a lot of time on one very specific issue and then moves quickly over others. But, overall, this is a book that any reasonably educated person should be able to read and enjoy.

    Beautiful Insights
  

*by N***A on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 9, 2022*

Paz treats the task of biography with Sor Juana by viewing her ideas, way of life, and identify as a woman in a constrictive time.  His work is comparable, for me anyway, of an Impressionistic painting of a complex person, who became an icon of the liberation of the feminine mystique.  This work "grabs" me with its brilliant, imaginative biography of an incredible woman in history.

    Sor Juana Come To Life
  

*by E***T on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 1, 2008*

She winds up caught up in the "Traps of Faith" as Paz refers to the traps sprung by her time and lifetime which doomed her to a shortened life-span and an end to her excellant writings from poetry to prose to drama along with an end to her library filled with books and tomes from her time. Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz is inspirational as a poetess in particular and Paz salutes this woman with his hefty biography filling in the blanks as to the influences that surrounded and imbued Sor Juana with her colourful figures and joyous sufferings that inspired her to dig for gold in the mines of the baroque affectations of her time.  For SorJuanistas a must have-- and you know who you are-- for those unaquainted with Sor Juana Ines de La Cruz-- you'll find out how much you are missing.
