Margery Kempe's Meditations - Naoë Kukita Yoshikawa - Bog

"The Book of Margery Kempe" has generally been judged to be over-emotional and its structure regarded as at worst non-existent, at best naive. This work argues instead that The Book unfolds a creative experience of memory as spiritual progress, and explores Margery's meditational experience in the context of visual and verbal iconography.
