ARREDONDO RAMON, Fernando. The Ejercicios para las bestezuelas de Dios by Peñalosa and the doctrine of saint Ignacio de Loyola. Valenciana [online]. 2019, vol.12, n.24, pp.33-50.  Epub 30-Dic-2019. ISSN 2007-2538.  https://doi.org/10.15174/rv.v0i24.425.

From a point of view of the contents and its meaning, we´ll approach the way in which Joaquín Antonio Peñalosa could have inspired himself on the Ejercicios espirituales of Saint Ignacio de Loyola by the elaboration of his poetic work Ejercicios para las bestezuelas de Dios, a book whose main characters are animals or plants, where he adapts to his poetic language, especially poetic Franciscanism, the Ignatian itinerary to reach the union with God. Our purpose is to compare both texts in order to make objective a relationship that recallsthe title of the Peñalosian work, though that had not yet explicitly been done. From this work we will conclude that Peñalosa follows the same argument structure as the Ejercicios of Saint Ignacio to achieve the same ascetic aims, evidencing that the book of the Mexican is ascetic poetry of Franciscan style, with roots in saint Ignacio.
