Through the analysis of the poetic, political, and philosophical functions of the 1680 Neptuno alegórico (Allegorical Neptune), this this study discusses the concepts of "emblem,"ekphrasis"," "syncretism," and "neoplatonic tradition" in one of the most rethorical and multifaceted texts of the humanist writer and Hieronymite nun sor Juana Inés de la Cruz (1648-1695).esAvailable to the World Wide Websor Juana Inés de la Cruzsincretismoarcos triunfales efímerosNeptuno alegóricosímbolosécfrasistradición neoplatónicaBarrocosubtextosalegoríajeroglíficosemblemsAllegorical Neptuneephemeral archshieroglyphsgoodess Isisfeminizationfeminizaciónemblematic traditionsymbolic imagerysubtextsneoplatonic traditionThesisLundin Gaona, María Paz.
