Overview
An imaginative engagement with the medieval mystic Julian of Norwich in the form of a series of personal letters.
Anchorhold is a unique collection of letters concerning Julian of Norwich's Revelations of Divine Love, addressed to the writer herself. Through them, Kirsten Pinto Gfroerer explores the meaning of her own life and the transformation that studying and teaching this remarkable text can bring.
Julian makes extreme claims about the love of God revealed in the crucified Christ. Her assertion that in love the human self can truly flourish and that in the end 'all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well' is a hope-filled contradiction of much modern thought. Central to her theology are a series of meditations on the face and body of Christ, which both point to God's love and reveal something of the nature of human vocation. Gfroerer's search for meaning in Julian's text, eloquently expressed in this series of letters, involves the participation of her whole self, learning to inhabit the vision given to Julian. It is this search and participation that we are invited to join.
