Over six hundred years ago a woman known as Julian of
Norwich wrote what is now regarded as one of the greatest
works of literature in English. But who was Julian of Norwich?

Medievalist and TV historian Janina Ramirez offers insights
into how and why her writing has survived, and what we can
learn from this fourteenth-century mystic whose work lay
hidden in the shadows of her male contemporaries for far too
long.
