Should Margery Kempe be understood as a medieval mystic or through the lens of mental illness?
Margery Kempe’s visions, emotional intensity, and public religious behavior often strike modern readers as extreme. Some interpretations frame her experiences in psychological terms. I want to understand whether this approach is historically appropriate, or whether Kempe should be read primarily within the tradition of medieval Christian mysticism.
