en-wikipedia-org-278		Julian of Norwich - Wikipedia			.html	text/html	8659	1108	72	According to several commentators, including Santha Bhattacharji in her article in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Julian's discussion of the maternal nature of God suggests that she knew of motherhood from her own experience of bringing up her own children.[29] As plague epidemics were rampant during the 14th century, it has been suggested that Julian may have lost her own family as a result of plague.[37][38] By then becoming an anchoress she would have been kept in quarantine away from the rest of the population of Norwich.[33] However, nothing in her writings provides any indication of the plagues, religious conflict, or civil insurrection that occurred in the city during her lifetime.[39] Kenneth Leach and Sister Benedicta Ward SLG, the joint authors of Julian Reconsidered (first published in 1988),[40] are of the opinion that she was a young widowed mother, and never a nun, based on a dearth of references about her occupation in life, and a lack of evidence to connect her with Carrow Priory, which would have honoured her, and buried her in the priory grounds.[41]	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-278.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-278.txt
