Klappentext zu „El Sueño “
One of the most celebrated texts of the Hispanic Baroque, El sueño has been identified by critics as one of the inaugural voices of a Latin American feminist literary tradition. This study is unique in that it focuses upon the poetic conception of space within the text. It is through the exploration and exploitation of the dialectics of physical space that Sor Juana is able to construct a verbal labyrinth that genuinely reflects the intricacies and ambiguities inherent in the word and the world of seventeenth-century colonial Mexico. On the wings of poetic imagination, Sor Juana emerges from the marginalized depths of silence and shadows, transgressing spatiotemporal boundaries within the literary act, in the attempt to discover and colonize a space of her own, in which to freely express herself in the quest for omniscience and subjective identity.

Pressezitat
"'El sueño: Cartographies of Knowledge and the Self' is an inspiring and intellectually vibrant study of Sor Juana's most complex and haunting poem. The perceptive and delicate analysis of Dr. Nanfito invites the reader to explore this intricate poem of spatial and lyrical experimentation, as well as to understand and share the beauty of this fundamental text in Spanish American letters. This is one of the most extraordinary and meditative analyses of Sor Juana's 'El sueño' - a radiant alliance of scholarship and lyricism." (Marjorie Agosin, Wellesley College, Massachusetts)
