One of the first woman authors, Julian of Norwich produced in Revelations of Divine Love a remarkable work of revelatory insight, that stands alongside The Cloud of Unknowing and Piers Plowman as a classic of Medieval religious literature After fervently praying for a greater understanding of Christ's passion, Julian of Norwich, a fourteenth-century anchorite and mystic, experienced a series of divine revelations. Through these 'showings', Christ's sufferings were revealed to her with extraordinary intensity, but she also received assurance of God's unwavering love for man and his infinite capacity for forgiveness. Written in a vigorous English vernacular, the Revelations are one of the most original works of medieval mysticism and have had a lasting influence on Christian thought. This.
I was prompted to read this after seeing a tv documentary about Julian of Norwich. The book is very well presented, putting the medieval writings into context. The Revelations themselves are very compelling, being written by a very sincere and devout woman.
Nothing worked. Religious ramblings from a fanatic far removed from the real world of her day. Of no interest other than to highbrow nutcases lost in the moonbeams of borderline lunacy.
