Julian Of Norwich Boeken
Juliaan van Norwich is de belangrijkste Engelse mystica van de 14e eeuw, met een sterk trinitarische en fundamenteel neoplatonische spiritualiteit. In haar Openbaringen van Goddelijke Liefde beschrijft ze zestien mystieke visioenen die ze in 1373 tijdens een ernstige ziekte ontving. Hoewel ze zichzelf als 'ongeletterd' omschreef, schrijft Juliaan in een prachtig eenvoudige stijl, die een diep begrip van de traditionele theologie onthult. Haar visioenen, vaak gericht op de Passie van Christus, leiden haar tot diepgaande inzichten in de aard van God, worstelend met leerstellingen over zonde en verdoemenis, maar uiteindelijk een optimistische zekerheid omarmend dat 'alles goed zal komen'.
