Julian Of Norwich

Julian Of Norwich

Julian Of Norwich

Showings, Translated Into Modern English (classics Of Western Spirituality)

BY EDMUND COLLEGE AND JAMES WALSH

Brief Description:
Julian lived in solitude in 14th century Norwich, she received these 17 "showings" of God's love in a series of visions. The 1st version was a short text. The 2nd, longer version was written some years later. Showings reveals a Julian who experienced God directly. Her revelations of the feminine side of God represent a significant contribution to the tradition. Her graphic visions of the humanity of Christ are marked by vivid imagery and detail. But the special appeal of Julian lies in her theology of the all- embracing fullness of divine love. Julian is certainly a warm and approachable companion for the mystical journey.
