Valentina Pinelo
Valentina Pinelo was a Spanish poet and writer at the beginning of the 17th century, during the Spanish Golden Age of politics and culture.
Born into a wealthy Genovese family, at age 4 years she was sent to a convent at San Leandro in Seville to become a nun. She was in contact with certain intellectuals of the era, including the celebrated playwright Lope de Vega, who dedicated several laudatory poems to her.
She wrote Libro de las alabanzas y excelencias de la gloriosa Santa Ana published by Clemente Hidalgo in 1601. This work is studied by researchers of Mariology.
A street in Seville is named in Valentina Pinelo's honour.[1]
