Resum

This article aims to show the resemblances that we can find between Admiraçión operum Dey written by Teresa de Cartagena in the mid-XVth century and Respuesta de sor Filotea de la Cruz written by sor Juana Inés de la Cruz two hundred years later. Both works are two epistles where the female´s intellectual capacity to know and to write is defended by a nun who was received critized for a former work. The religious Teresa de Cartagena –converse bishop Pablo Cartagena's granddaughter– wrote a moral essay that surprised male readers who considered that the text was a plagiarism. On the other hand, the hieronymite sister sor Juana Inés was reproached by a clergyman for having written the polemic treatise on theology Carta Atenagórica.
