Teresa of Ávila was a key figure in Spanish mysticism and one of the few women named a Doctor of the Church.
She founded the Order of the Discalced Carmelites alongside St. John of the Cross, reforming the religious life of her time.
Her autobiographical work, titled 'The Life', offers an intimate look at her profound spiritual experience.
In her book 'The Interior Castle', she uses the metaphor of a castle to describe the soul's journey toward God.
Born in Ávila in 1515, her literary and theological legacy remains a fundamental reference in religious literature.
