"Julian the Apostate sought to create a kind of ’Church of Paganism’ as a viable alternative to the Christian religion in which he was reared, but which he repudiated to take up his ancestral gods and their rites. Thus it is fitting that Julian be treated as a Pagan Church Father. That is the treatment given him at last by the erudite R. Joseph Hoffmann, whose earlier reconstruction of Porphyry’s AGAINST THE CHRISTIANS and Celsus’s THE TRUE WORD allowed these great prophetic anti-Christian voices to sound forth again, no longer muffled and gagged by the Christian polemi

In Showing of Love, Julia Bolton Holloway provides a complete translation of Julian of Norwichs ground-breaking text, opening windows of insight into her medieval world. As a female mystic and theologian who was uniquely recognized (in a time when most women were not) for her holiness, Julian of Norwich also came to be known as a catechist, prophet, and spiritual director.

Julian, an anchoress who lived in solitude in Norwich, England in the late 14th century, received the 16 "showings" or revelations of God’s love in a series of experienced visions. The first version was a short text. The second, longer version was apparently written some years after the first, when she had had time to pray and reflect about the teachings God had given her. In the light of their thirteen years of work on the critical edition of Showings, Colledge and Walsh give us this first modern English rendering from the place of Julian’s teaching in Catholic Spirituality.
