At her death in 1695 Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz left a remarkable body of writing—religious, courtly, and popular poems in a wide variety of verse forms; intellectual treatises; religious and secular plays; a long epistemological poem, “Primero sueño”; and an autobiographical essay, the ‘Respuesta a Sor Filotea”, which, to date, remains the most reliable literary portrait we have ofthis woman of genius.
What we know of Sor Juana merely awakens our appetite for further information. We are unsure of the date of her birth. We do not know whether she ever knew her father. We know approximately when she was sent to Mexico City to live with her mother’s sister, but not why. We can approximate the dates of her life in court under the protection and patronage of the Marqués andMarquesa de Mancera, but we know nothing of the everyday details of those years. We can only speculate as to why at the height of her popularity and in the full flush of her beauty she left the court to enter the convent. In addition to the guesses we can make from her writing, and besides the autobiographical “Respuesta”, and the nearly contemporary biography written by Father Diego Callejas, wehave only a handful of birth, death, and marriage records relating to her family, and a few papers concerning Sor Juana’s entrance into and subsequent professions of faith in first the Carmelite Order, and then the Convent of Saint Jerome, where she died.
