#JuanaInés is a quite remarkable series, and it really made me want to learn more about #SorJuana and read her works more.
It appears that historians have disliked how it strays from the historical record and speculated where that record is spotty, but I think it's okay to do so.
Holy shit... the punishment that Sor Antonia de San Joseph faced for getting pregnant was solitary confinement for the rest of her life.
A character in #JuanaInés is based on her. Geez, this is really brutal.
We're really enjoying #JuanaInés. It's speculating a lot where the historical record is spotty but it seems to be sticking close to fact whenever we do have documents about #SorJuana's life.
Anyone got a favourite English #translation of her #poetry? I'm looking for a good translation of "Hombre necios..."

I just watched the first episode of #JuanaInés and then I read on English Wikipedia that #SorJuana actually had correspondence with #Newton.
Whaaaaaat? Why is there no mention of this in the Spanish Wikipedia? That sounds like a big deal! Where are these letters between Newton and Sor Juana?
Let's see if the internet can find them...
