Julian of Norwich prog on telly

[TalkingtoLangClegintheDark]

Anyone watching programme about Julian of Norwich atm? Fascinating. Not a lot to say as am trying to watch and am rubbish at multi-tasking but just wondered if anyone else is watching!

Thanks Talking. I have made a note to watch this. I assume it will be on catch up TV. It sounds wonderful!!

Gotta love a nun called Sister Scholastica

Here's a lovely one

@BoreOfWhabylon

Just google "Julian of Norwich cat" in Google images

Purrfect

(One of the nuns in that still is the Sister Scholastica I mentioned)

Catliness is next to godliness

Woman subject, woman presenter, several women interviewees, first translation into modern English was a woman - a very satisfyingly woman-centric programme 🚺🚺🚺

"All shall be well and all shall be well and all manner of thing shall be well"

My mantra

Mine too!

Thanks so much for posting that this is on TalkingtoLangCleginthedark. Will be watching on catchup and will also take a look at the books of quotes mentioned.

You’re welcome, Maggie

Magpie!!! Sorry

Thank you so much for the heads up. I first came across her in my most favourite book ever, Katherine by Anya Seton.

I'm going to record this; many thanks.

I chose her name as my confirmation name!

It will be on catch up for 29 days from today for those who are interested

Good choice!

My mantra

Along with: “He said not 'Thou shalt not be tempested, thou shalt not be travailed, thou shalt not be dis-eased'; but he said, 'Thou shalt not be overcome.”

Hildegard of Bingen, Julian of Norwich - such inspirational scholars and creative minds.

Thanks Talkingto!

Oh, FAB, thanks OP, will seek it out.

So glad you posted this - I would love to know more about her!

No, but I will look out for it. She was a fascinating character and, having read her, you do tend to think that all will be well.

It’s worth knowing about St Scholastica. Fifth-century Abbess, founder of the female Benedictine Order, and patron saint of education, after whom that nun will have been named:
