It was also the first book ever written by a woman in the English language. But until now, the woman herself was an elusive figure.\nIn this fascinating work, Veronica Mary Rolf has offered a convincing reconstruction of Julian’s life in fourteenth-century Norwich, along with a comprehensive chapter-by-chapter commentary on her Revelations―rendered here in a new and faithful translation from the Middle English.\nJulian’s Gospel goes in-depth to uncover the political, cultural, social, and religious milieu that formed and deeply influenced her development as a woman and a mystic. Throughout, the book creates a strong dramatic arc for Julian’s Revelations that interweaves her personal sufferings and burning questions with her visionary experiences, producing a compelling spiritual biography. Julian of Norwich comes fully alive in this work, her intense spirituality bearing a message of surprising relevance to our own era. ― orbisbooks.com Published On: 2014-09-10\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1626980942\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: GBV.1626980942.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Rolf, Veronica Mary\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Has a sturdy binding with some shelf wear.
