Fully-annotated edition of English mystic Margery Kempe's life and
divine revelations [dated 1436-8]. [This edition previously
published by Longman.] The Book of Margery Kempe, the earliest
surviving autobiography in English (dated 1436-8), is a unique
account of the extraordinary life, travels and revelations of a
fifteenth-century Norfolk housewife and mother, pilgrim,prophet and
visionary; it is one of the most compelling and significant English
texts of the middle ages. This volume presents the original text in
accessible form for modern readers, with on-page glossing and a
glossary of common words. It is accompanied by on-page annotation
of and commentary on the Book, bringing together scholarship on
Kempe and setting her life in the social, political and spiritual
context of her time. An introduction provides information on and
context for the further interpretation of the text, and the volume
is completed by a chronology of Kempe's life. [This edition
previously published by Longman.] Professor BARRY WINDEATT is a
Fellow of Emmanuel College, Cambridge.
