GAYET, Andrea. ÚRSULA SUÁREZ AND ÚRSULA DE JESÚS: SELF-REPRESENTATION AND AUTHORITY DURING EARLY AMERICAN MODERNITY. perifrasis. rev.lit.teor.crit. [online]. 2022, vol.13, n.27, pp.116-133. Epub 07-Sep-2022. ISSN 2145-8987. https://doi.org/10.25025/perifrasis202213.27.07.
Conventual writing during Early American Modernity implied a delineation of a space of enunciation along with self-representation, which were the basis for legitimating their right to speak. Úrsula Suárez and Úrsula de Jesús write, at the behest of their confessors, an account of their lives in which the mystic discourse enables them to reconfigure not only their own voices and those of others, but also the specific topics and rhetoric of these accounts, undermining their position, and its limits, within the ecclesiastic structure.
