O knihe

"All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of thing shall be well." Julian of Norwich's statement of faith has comforted readers for centuries. Today, the 14th-century English anchoress still has much to offer our anxious world-and Ruth Goring's short meditations invite us to experience for ourselves Julian's awareness of Divine love. "Bleeding crosses and archaic English might make would-be readers hesitate to pick up Julian of Norwich's writings, but Ruth Goring's Dearworthy bridges that gap with deeply personal meditations on some of Julian's most essential ideas. Engaging with this book is like looking into a deep well-and finding divine love reflected back at you." - Amy Frykholm, author of Julian of Norwich: A Contemplative Biography and Wild Woman: A Footnote, the Desert, and My Quest for an Elusive Saint "Artful, honest, and theologically rich, Ruth Goring's Dearworthy is a timely gift to readers in what often feels like a fraught moment. Goring's prose is at once lyrical and clear, her insights gentle and surprising, and her botanical illustrations accompany the text beautifully. Whether you are meeting Julian of Norwich for the first time or have traveled with her a long while, you might find yourself-as was I-"shocked" back into joy while reading this book." - Jennifer Grant, author of Dimming the Day and Finding Calm in Nature "Dearworthy is an exploration of the inner spiritual lives of both the author and her subject, Julian of Norwich. Goring's meditations, rooted in innovative feminist Christianity, are tenderly illustrated with exquisite botanical drawings. The breathwork included as part of each meditation grounds us for our own spiritual explorations. Both these extraordinary women-Ruth Goring and Julian of Norwich-offer us guidance and companionship as we process and transform the trauma in our lives." - Sherrilynn Bevel, PhD, Level III Kingian Nonviolence Trainer
