(We do not know her given name, because she became known by the name of a church that became her home.) Julian \"saw our Lord scorn [the Devil's] wickedness\" and noted that \"he wants us to do the same.\" In this impassioned, analytic, and irreverent book, Amy Laura Hall emphasizes Julian's call to scorn the Devil. Julian of Norwich envisioned courage during a time of fear. \u003ci\u003eLaughing at the Devil\u003c\/i\u003e describes how a courageous woman transformed a setting of dread into hope, solidarity, and resistance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Amy Laura Hall\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Duke University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/22\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.40w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781478000259\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2018 pg. 74\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAmy Laura Hall is Associate Professor of Christian Ethics at Duke University Divinity School.
