The Cell of Self-Knowledge - The Cell of Self-Knowledge by HenryPepwell
Excerpt: FROM the end of the thirteenth to the beginning of the fifteenth century may be called the golden age of mystical literature in the

of Richard Rolle, the Hermit of Hampole (d. 1349), of Walter Hilton (d. 1396), and of Mother Juliana of Norwich, whose Revelation of
Divine Love professedly date from 1373, speak for themselves.
