“All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of thing shall be well... for there is a force of love moving through the universe that holds us fast and will never let us go.”

This book is absolutely beautiful. Julian's visions are truly pictures of God's love for us, and how He keeps us safe, even when we aren't aware of His presence. Julian's writing is very repetitive, but I imagine that's partially due to the nature of the illness she experienced while receiving these visions. She really emphasizes how Jesus would have suffered even more for us to show His love, and how He is like our Mother and Brother.

It drags on a lot, but otherwise Julian of Norwich has some beautiful insight.

quirkyreader Are you reading the edited version or the recent edition put out by Penguin? 5y
Megara @quirkyreader This one is penguin! 5y
rwmg I read the Norton edition of the original Middle English. The notes were helpful and it really wasn't too difficult. 5y
quirkyreader @rwmg I‘ll be on the lookout for that edition to add to my other ones. 5y
Megara @rwmg I want to read the original version as well. 🙌 5y

““I quite sincerely wanted to be ill to the point of dying, so that I might receive the last rites of Holy Church, in the belief—shared by my friends—that I was in fact dying. There was no earthly comfort I wanted to live for... [cont. in comment] #death #dying #medieval

Megara “In this illness I wanted to undergo all those spiritual and physical sufferings I should have were I really dying, and, to know, moreover, the terror and assaults of the demons—everything, except death itself! My intention was that I should be wholly cleansed thereby through the mercy of God, and that thereafter, because of that illness, I might live more worthily of him. Perhaps too I might even die a better death, for I was longing to be with.. 5y

Hi all! I've been caught up in #NaNoWriMo this month so haven't been reading much. Thought I'd get back on the horse with a #NonFiction choice from one of my favourite historians- Janina Ramirez. This book is about the first known woman to write in the English language: Julian of Norwich.

annahenke Interested to hear what you think! 8y
KellyTurner @annahenke I watched the TV show on it recently so really looking forward to reading this. Will let you know! 😀 8y
