“…"For Sor Juana, humanizing and Christianizing are partners." 310 In her the issue of the Other and of Catholicism are indissolubly united; this is shown by her Christmas carols for Black and Indigenous people 311 and her Incarnation Exercises, whose title alone reveals its affiliation with the Jesuit Criollo theology discussed above. Her syncretism, typical of her spirituality and theology, appears in the Divino Narciso (Divine Narcissus) where she speaks of Aztec communion as an anticipation of the Eucharist; Sor Juana incorporates different times in an optimistic and inclusive way, unifying ruptures, conciliating contraries.…”

Virginia Aspe’s erudite Approaches to the Theory of Freedom offers a new interpretation of “Primero Sueño”–probably the highest Spanish-written poem–, written by the nun Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz . Aspe considers the philosophical and theological influences regarding Sor Juana’s development of her concept and ideal of freedom. With vast erudition, Aspe helps advance the field of Sor Juana studies beyond what Paz was able to accomplish. She emphasises the influence of the Jesuit theology of the University of Coimbra. New perspectives and references available to the Spanish speaking world, such as the recent translation of several previously unknown Latin texts from Sor Juana’s Mexican contemporaries, provide insights that help Aspe take our understanding of the poem further and cast new lights on her idea of freedom, as well as her background and references. Approaches to the Theory of Freedom help us to become familiar with the way this magnificent poem becomes a defense of freedom. That is why this book means a significant contribution to our understanding of Sor Juana’s thought and the poetry of Sor Juana’s period.
