This paper deals with different possible ways to approach the idea of the “Earthly Paradise” in a religious chronicle, written by Carlos de Sigüenza y Góngora. His work connects the mythological and utopian understanding of the “Paradise”, placed in the West, with its religious and allegorical dimension. His possible aim is to display the patriotic pride through the hagiographical depiction of virtuous nuns.
