This title in other formats:Other titles in the Brepols Medieval Women series:The Writings of Julian of Norwich: A Vision Showed to a Devout Woman and a Revelation of Love (Brepols Medieval Women Series)by Nicholas Watson
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:This book presents a much needed new edition of Julian's writings in Middle English, one that makes possible the serious reading and study of her thought not just for students and scholars of Middle English but for those with little or no previous experience with the language. Synopsis:Julian of Norwich (c. 1343c. 1416), a contemporary of Geoffrey Chaucer, William Langland, and John Wyclif, is the earliest woman writer of English we know about. Although she described herself as "a simple creature unlettered," Julian is now widely recognized as one of the great speculative theologians of the Middle Ages, whose thinking about God as love has made a permanent contribution to the tradition of Christian belief. Despite her recent popularity, however, Julian is usually read only in translation and often in extracts rather than as a whole.This book presents a much-needed new edition of Julian's writings in Middle English, one that makes possible the serious reading and study of her thought not just for students and scholars of Middle English but also for those with little or no previous experience with the language.
