2.0 out of 5 stars
Thought provoking but too speculative,
This review is from: Julian Reconsidered (Fairacres publication) (Paperback)
This book may well be valuable to those with a keen interest in Julian of Norwich - provided it is not the first, or the only, work on the topic which they consult. All that is known certainly of Julian's life is that contained in her books, and Kenneth Leech, perhaps in an attempt to relate her work to the 20th century conditions, is rather too speculative. (Perhaps, once upon a time, it seemed important for some to believe Julian had been a Benedictine nun - but is it so important, now, that she had to have been a married lady? The fact is that we do not know even her true name.)Best not to place this on the shelf of anyone with an interest in Julian, unless it is one of at least five works. |
