Add to ORKGThis essay breaks new ground by examining a hitherto overlooked female-authored text from fifteenth-century Winchester, arguing for its need to be read alongside the writing of Julian of Norwich (d. c. 1416) and Margery Kempe (d. c. 1440) as an example of how a female-focused 'compassioun' imbricated the works of late-medieval women within late medieval England. The essay aims to demonstrate that such treatments by medieval women in their writing reflect a movement towards an ultimate feminisation of spiritual discourse that found fertile ground within the impetus for Church reform within the Lancastrian circles of fifteenth century England
