Description - Revelations of Divine Love by Julian Of Norwich
New translation of a compelling work which stands alongside The Cloud of Unknowing and Langland's Piers Plowman as a classic from this golden age of literature.
Coming from a society where women were barred from serious writing and teaching, Julian, an anchorite of the great medieval city of Norwich, nevertheless uses her womanlines and the English vernacular of the day to describe a series of revelations which she received from God in the year 1373. She identifies the female nature of Christ's suffering and the motherhood of God, using images from domestic daily life, emphasizing the homeliness of God's love. She writes in a lively and unpretentious manner and her theology is precise without ever being pedantic.
