description: "Teresa de Cartagena was a writer, mystic and nun in late medieval Castile who is considered to be the first Spanish-language female writer and mystic. She became deaf between 1453 and 1459. Her experience of deafness influenced her two known works Arboleda de los enfermos and Admiraçión operum Dey. The latter work represents what many critics consider as the first feminist tract written by a Spanish woman."
