Sumario:The present article delves into the construction of authority carried out by the friar Jerónimo Gracián inside and outside the Discalced Carmel after the death of their binding symbol, Teresa of Ávila (1515-1582). After a brief review of his life, we will focus on his attempt to present a close link with the visionary of Ávila as a legitimizing element of his person and work. Finally, we will consider Gracián´s attempt to base the unifying factor between him and Teresa on the Renaissance notion of Platonic love, making the act of loving the premise of a vicarious authority that finally remained more in the order of longing rather than on the practice.
