We propose to describe the emergence of an unconventional spirituality around Sarita Colonia, an urban-marginal character of the early twentieth century in the city of Lima, Peru. As a popular icon, it creates a spiritual prototype, and we will show, from an interdisciplinary perspective (especially philosophical and theological), how she intervenes in the urban-marginal social composition and how she proposes a new spiritual writing based on a well-defined religious experience. In this sense, our aim is to demonstrate how new values emerge from the sacred writing of Sarita Colonia that challenge the traditionally official ones.enNarrativaRepresentacionesSagradoSímboloTextohttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1
