SUMMARY:Sor Juana\, The First Feminist
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, August 16\n10:00 a.m. \nBy Gregorio Luke\nNoted scholar Gregorio Luke will offer a fully illustrated presentation on this fascinating individual: “One of the major attractions of Art and Empire: The Golden Age of Spain is the portrait by Miguel Cabrera of Juana Inés de la Cruz\, rarely seen outside of México. Sor Juana has been called the ‘first feminist\,’ the first to defend women from the oppression of men. She is also the first in our hemisphere to defend women’s right to knowledge. Gifted with intelligence\, grace and beauty\, she so passionately sought knowledge\, that she asked her mother to dress her as a man so that she could attend the university\, which at the time was closed to women. Sor Juana continued her studies independently and was so brilliant\, that she caught the attention of the Viceroy. She went to live in the Royal Court of the New Spain and became a sensation for her knowledge and beauty. To pursue a literary career\, she became a nun and went on to write numerous plays and exceptionally beautiful poems. Towards the end of her life\, she affirmed\, that God’s greatest gift to humanity was free will\, idea that angered the ecclesiastical hierarchy\, who silenced her and forced her to relinquish her library. Sor Juana died in obscurity during the great plague in México City\, but her work lives on as an inspiration to women and freedom lovers everywhere.” – Gregorio Luke \n\nGregorio Luke is an internationally acclaimed lecturer and curator.
