| biography:
| Poet, born in Madrid, Spain. She was an illegitimate daughter of the actress Micaela de Luján and Lope de Vega, who dedicated his play El remedio de la desdicha (1620) to her. She took the veil in 1622 and became a Trinitarian. Encouraged by her father, she had begun to write poetry at the age of 10. The Poesías and Coloquios were edited by M Serrano y Sanz in his Apuntes para una biblioteca de escritoras españolas (Vol 2, 1905). |
