Sor Juana is More Than Just a Nun
After reading Sor Juana's response to the bishop of Puebla, it made my realize how this nun has very strong characteristics that defines how she is through her writing. Sor Juana is more than just a nun is an aspiration. She tends to speak out loud and what is exactly on her mind. The way she is responds to the bishop is very sarcastic. I love the fact that she talks about how there are social differences between a male and female especially through the church. After I read this it was surprising to me because I didn't expect for somebody especially someone who is from the religious group to speak about the church. Sor Juana points out how the church is sexist. I love the fact that she does this, but at the same time I question how the church accepted this? Also, if there was any consequences because of how she spoke out?
