Julian of Norwich
Here's the first of a coming project on the wonderful women of Norwich. Julian was woman mystic who had 13 "shewings " during an illness in May 1373, she wrote of them in book ' Revelations of Divine Love' , she is now recognised as one of the great Christian theologians. Thomas Merton said her : " vision of God was true". I reckon she was on to consciousness !!. A saying of hers you may know : "all will be well and all manner of things will be well ".
This figure of her, with her book stands at the doorway to Norwich Cathedral. She was long regarded by the church as a heretic. This figure is very recent.
