Julian of Norwich in Her Phenomenology engages Julian's primordial religious experience of May 1373; her subsequent definition to its revelation within her spiritual texts; and their hermeneutics made manifest from centuries of historical context. The meaning of Julian's experience continued to unfold throughout her life: with its grace, and by insight with her own use of phenomenological method. The historical manifestation of Julian's graced experience is given its closest phenomenological expression within her Short Text (Amherst) and in her Long Text (Sloane), with their collective human-Divine collaborations. But first, they arise phenomenally for Julian in the reciprocal gaze exchanged between her God and her soul. It is by God's Trinitarian gift of love, and in her grace-filled collaboration with others, that Julian's spiritual texts preserve, and guard, her experience of prayer and contemplation grounded in God: namely, with humanity's resting in God's substance, and with God's resting and ruling in her own soul as God's homeliest home.
