She lived through the dreadful bubonic plague that killed close to 50% of Europeans. Being an anchoress, she ‘sheltered in place’ and developed a deep wisdom that she shared in her book, Showings, which was the first book in English by a woman. A theologian way ahead of her time, Julian develops a feminist understanding of God as mother at the heart of nature’s goodness. Fox shares what isn’t typically written in a medieval history book: Julian of Norwich’s teachings that goes beyond religion and spirituality. It also contains sensible advice on how to live in light during this unpredictable times. If you’re into feminist history books or lives about female authors, this one is definitely for you! Review: Reading this book brings me joy. - I've heard of Julian of Norwich for almost 40 years. Recently, Richard Rohr mentioned this book in his daily email meditations and I have decided to buy it. The book opened a new vista of creation spirituality to me. This is a more positive outlook on creation, incarnation, and sensuality than the preaching of the mainstream Catholic church. Fox in his forward explains that the creation spirituality was firmly embedded in the wisdom tradition of the Bible, Benedictine spirituality, Franciscan Spirituality, etc. I've learned that this was the position of the church prior to the Bubonic Plaque. During and after the plaque the church fathers focused more on the original sin instead of the original blessing. A week prior, on Mercy Sunday, I devoured the messages of sister Faustina regarding God's Mercy but also purgatory and hell. I felt scared of eternal damnation. A few days later, I received Fox's new book and Julian's message is quite the opposite. It infuses me with hope and joy and awe and wonder for the entire creation. The book also discusses important contemporary issues of our pandemic, systemic racism, and climate change. If you like the teachings of Richard Rohr, you would definitely like this book. It seems to me that a lot of his ideas of nondualism and Universal Christ were inspired by Lady Julian. If you are a woman who is disturbed by the patriarchy in Christianity and would like to experience a more feminine vision of Mother Christ-this book is for you. Or if you like Hildegaard of Bingen, there is another powerful woman for you. I am a therapist. I loved that Julian recommended self-examination and a healthy sense of self. She used the term"dig and ditch" for psychotherapy. Brilliant, right? Review: A Creation Spirituality perspective of hope in our time - I recommend this well written and inspirational book, which offers hope during and after the Covid-19 pandemic and encourages action to solve our climate emergency and rapid loss of bio-diversity. Julian speaks directly with a prophetic voice about other issues of today: sexism, racism, misogyny, matricide and patriarchy. I have successfully used Matthew Fox’s book on Julian of Norwich, a 13th century mystic, as the basis of an 8-week small group discussion on: the dark night of the soul; the metaphysics of goodness, joy and awe; oneing - divinity found in nature and the cosmos; the divine feminine and motherhood of God; non-dualism; trust and courage; love vs. the spirit of evil; and a life of justice and compassion. Fox interprets Julian through the lens of creation spirituality and relates how other medieval mystics (Meister Eckhart, Hildegard, Mechtild of Magdeburg, Thomas Aquinas, and Francis of Assisi) had similar non-dualistic, panentheistic, divine-feminine and “web of creation” understandings. To distinguish from commentary, I found it helpful to highlight the words of Julian in a color, using Kindle desktop. Footnote are provided that reference the 2013 translation by Mirabai Starr, The Showings of Julian of Norwich: A New Translation or Brendan Doyle’s 1983 translation Meditations with Julian of Norwich. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #553,952 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #69,135 in Religion & Spirituality (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 585 Reviews | ## Images ![Julian of Norwich: Wisdom in a Time of Pandemic—and Beyond - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71nhTkV44rS.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reading this book brings me joy. *by D***E on April 20, 2021* I've heard of Julian of Norwich for almost 40 years.

He mistakenly expects our Covid crisis to be the turning point from a culture founded on original sin to a culture grounded in Divine Love. Nevertheless, this needed cultural transformation is inevitable. Patriarchy, domination of others, controlling others based on their fear of Hell will not survive much longer. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/247058845-julian-of-norwich-wisdom-in-a-time-of-pandemic-beyond](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/247058845-julian-of-norwich-wisdom-in-a-time-of-pandemic-beyond) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-06-04*
