    Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz

    Episode 2 of the podcast is on the value of teaching the writings of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, with special guests Bretton Rodriguez and Antony Lyon of University of California, San Diego’s Revelle College. Although the conversation is about her work broadly speaking, the episode dives a bit deeper into her response to the letter from Sor Filotea.
