In this book, Deborah Frick analyses medieval visionary writings by Julian of Norwich and Margery Kempe in comparison to seventeenth-century visionary writings by authors such as Anna Trapnel, Mary Carey, Anne Wentworth and Katherine Chidley, in order to investigate how these women authorised themselves in their writings and what topoi they use to find a voice and place of their own. This comparison, furthermore, and the strikingly similar topoi that are used by the female visionaries not only allows to question and examine topics such as authority, authorship, images of voice and body; it also breaks down preconceived and artificial boundaries and definitions. 330 1 $aBesprochen in:Das Mittelalter, 27/1 (2022), Nicole Oesterreich 410 0$aLettre 517 2 $aFrick, Authority and Authorship in Medieval and ... 606 $aGender 606 $aAuthority 606 $aAuthorship 606 $aVisionary Writings 606 $aVoice 606 $aLiterature 606 $aBritish Studies 606 $aLiterary Studies 615 4$aGender 615 4$aAuthority 615 4$aAuthorship 615 4$aVisionary Writings 615 4$aVoice 615 4$aLiterature 615 4$aBritish Studies 615 4$aLiterary Studies 700 $aFrick$b Deborah$p
