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 recalls the 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.References
