New to Edition
Additional texts include extracts from the Book of Margery Kempe, extracts from Julian of Norwich’s Revelations, the Old English Elene, and Ælfric’s Life of St Eugenia, substantially enhance the provision of texts written about women, by women, and (potentially) for women, allowing course convenors to use these works, together with those already in the Anthology, to create whole courses or parts of courses.
