Mysticism Summary


Margery Kempe and Julian of Norwich, which is a mystic? Are they both or is only one of them? We may never know. Julian of Norwich was an anchoress, while Margery Kempe went about her life trying to please the people that she met. The thought of Mysticism is really good, but it seems that the pusuit of some perfect physical ideal took the place of searching out what God wants, and so took the place of true religion. Mysticism was just another phase that the people of the time seemed to be going through, as the people continually sought some finite way to please God.
