  • Title: Medieval Soteriologies: Anselm of Canterbury and Julian of Norwich [The author argues that, while Julian gives evidence of some knowledge of Anselm’s ideas, she puts her emphasis on different concepts in her explanations of salvation. In Anselm’s "Cur deus homo" and his prayers, his description of salvation depended upon sin and compunction. Julian’s view of salvation was informed by her mystical vision. Humanity needed to put its trust in God, who was infinitely loving. Julian was distrustful of an undue preoccupation with sin and guilt. Title note supplied by Feminae.].
