Résumé
Catalina de Erauso, the “ensign nun”, the woman-soldier, felt comfortable dressed as a man, she behaved like a man, taking advantage of everything that the status of the man implied. But in the threatening situation for her life, she decided to wake up and take advantage of her condition as a woman, and even more so: of a particularly valuable woman: the “intact virgin”. Her virility along with her virginity allowed Catherine to be seen in her time as a "good citizen of the Crown."
