JULIAN OF NORWICH (1342?-1413?):

obscure English MYSTIC and HERMIT possibly influenced by NEO-PLATONISM who claimed to have received sixteen REVELATIONS from GOD on May 8th and 9th, 1373. She wrote about these revelations twenty years later in The Sixteen Revelations of Divine Love which extol divine love as the answer to all problems especially the PROBLEM OF EVIL.
