Listen "House of Desires: New Spain and Colonial Legacies"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, hosts Madison Mattfield-Mayberry and Katelyn Spurgin consider House of Desires through the lens of post-colonialism. They ground their investigation in Sor Juana's own biography, most notably through a close-reading of her relationship with the Viceroy and Vicereine and the occasion of the birth of their son. They use text from the play to draw connections between this event and the play's musical pageantry. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
