Pablo Acosta-García, Ph.D. (2009), Pompeu Fabra University, is currently a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB). He has been a Marie Curie Fellow at Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf (Germany) and a María Zambrano Postdoctoral Fellow at the Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB). His work includes edited books, and numerous articles and book chapters on medieval and early modern mystic women, including the first annotated translation of Angela da Foligno's Memoriale into Spanish (Siruela, 2009).

"The Visionary Preaching of Juana de la Cruz (1481–1534)... represents a pioneering contribution to the broader study of female preaching in premodern Europe. By illuminating the performative, creative, and theological dimensions of Juana’s sermons and their manuscript history, Acosta-García challenges long-standing assumptions about women’s roles in religious leadership."Carolyn Muessig, University of Calgary, Department of Classics and Religion, 15 December 2024
