In Spain, with the model and matrix of the genre, Santa Teresa de Ávila (1515-1582), and with an anomalous case in her illiterate condition, Isabel de Jesús (1586-1648), and in colonial America, with the Mother Francisca Josefa del Castillo (1671-1742) and sor Juana Inés de la Cruz (1648?-1695). In the articulation of rhetoric of affects, strategies of figuration and narrative models, Úrsula Suárez adjusts to the language, topics and models of the vida genre, but at the same time, she outlines a resistant and singular discourse ​
