“El verdadero amor es una quietud encendida”: cinco siglos de literatura espiritual en Granada con voz de mujer

Resumen

For too long the academic world has not paid due attention to women’s convent literature, underestimating the richness and complexity of a phenomenon with many nuances, which reaches an unusual geographical and temporal extension, which fortunately is beginning to change in recent decades. If we limit the field of study to the singular case of Granada (which was not incorporated into Christian Europe until the late date of 1492) we find around thirty surprising women religious writers, many of whom were completely forgotten, but who belong to our literary and cultural heritage, and as such should be vindicated and valued.
