Description
The Showings of Julian of Norwich by Denise N. Baker is a carefully edited Norton Critical Edition that explores the theology and complex themes of this intriguing religious visionary. This edition includes an introduction, contemporary texts to help understand Julian's originality, and interpretations from various scholars. The text itself is based on the Paris manuscript (1580-1650) of the long text, written in Middle English akin to Chaucer's style, making it more accessible than other editions. The book also features a Selected Bibliography for further study. This edition provides a comprehensive understanding of Julian's work, including her solution to the problem of evil in Revelation XIII and XIV, and is suitable for undergraduate readers.
