Praises and Prayers to Mary in the Writings of Francisca Josefa de Castillo y Guevara
View through CrossRef
AbstractThe Neo-granadine writer Francisca Josefa de Castillo (1671–1742) is mostly celebrated for her work in prose, despite having composed poetry. The nun wrote a narrative of her spiritual and mystical life known as Su Vida, and a record of divinely inspired emotions known as Afectos Espirituales. Among her poems is one dedicated to the Virgin Mary titled “Elogios y súplicas a María Santísima.” This poem is directly influenced by the Marian cult, strongly developed in the seventeenth century, that allows the reader to track the main points of discussion in the complex debate on Marian doctrine in the Christian tradition. The aim of this essay is to examine Castillo's theological approach to the Marian doctrine, and to analyze how Mother Castillo's Vida epitomizes the content of her poem.
