Julian of Norwich: A Contemporary Translation


Description

This is a fresh and contemporary rendering of one of the most loved and influential spiritual texts of all time. It brings alive the message and spirituality of this great 14th-century mystic to 21st century readers. At the age of 30, Julian of Norwich, a contemporary of Chaucer, was suffering a severe illness and believed she was on her deathbed. She had a series of intense visions of Jesus and recovered. Julian wrote down the narration of the visions shortly after they occurred and expanded on them 20 to 30 years later in what became the first book written in English by a woman. Her message remains strikingly relevant today: * that failure is an opportunity to learn and grow * that God's love has nothing to do with retribution and everything to do with compassion * in spite of appearances, all is well.

There are many kinds of magic...and once magic is in your blood it attracts more magic, says the royal cat Carbonel at the start of "Carbonel and Calidor." Sure enough, Carbonel s human friends Rosemary and John soon encounter magic in the form of a ring set with a fiery red stone that grants wishes to whoever wears it. And it s a lucky thing, too, because Carbonel needs Rosemary and John s help. It Squirty Bath Books: Duck download book seems that his son Calidor has rejected his princely status for the love of a streetwise cat named Wellingtonia (also known as Dumpsie). Even worse, Calidor has apprenticed himself to the witch-in-training Mrs. Dibdin. With all this going on, it s just a matter of time before Carbonel s old nemesis Grisana accompanied by her slyboots daughter Melissa hatches a plan to take control of Carbonel s kingdom once and for all.
