"¿Quién oyó lo que yo?" or Self–Affirmative Subversive Discourse of Sor Jua-na Ines de la Cruz (Updated Reading about an Impossible Identity)

Main Article Content

Teresa Puche Gutiérrez
Any literary work is unconscious or consciously conceived as tool of power with an underlying ideology to the service of a few concrete interests. To read to Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz means to enter a discursive model which seeks to subvert a reality of the 17th century: that one that prevents the woman from being aware of herself as a thinker human being. The self–affirmation in Sor Juana generates a recurrence in the use of the 'I' with unidirectional metadiscursive character as that is nothing more than a constant self–signalling which generates the production of an identity within the literature discourse.
Keywords
