The Showings of Divine Love

The narrative centers on Julian of Norwich's profound spiritual journey following a near-fatal illness, during which she experienced sixteen visions related to the Passion of Christ and the Virgin Mary. These revelations inspired her to dedicate her life to prayer and contemplation. Recognized as the first published book by a woman in English, Julian's work reflects her deep theological insights and mystical experiences. This edition features the Grace Warrack translation, which highlights the significance of her contributions to Christian mysticism.
