- More about Trauma and Tears in The Book of Margery Kempe
Employing the use of trauma theory, Rachel Scoggins uncovers a unique perspective to medieval femininity and spirituality present within the autobiography of Margery Kempe. Scoggins argues that Kempe’s work illustrates a situation where spirituality and sexuality co-exist in her devotion to God. In her autobiography, Kempe frames her religious journey through images of the body and female sexuality with the aim to take agency of both her own bodily autonomy and her religious expression. Eventually, Kempe reclaims her voice and control by leaning into the intersection of spirituality and sensuality and embracing female agency as she navigates male-dominated religious spaces. Trauma and Tears in The Book of Margery Kempe presents Kempe not as a hysterical or hypocritical figure, but a woman with an interesting and important view of everyday spiritual engagement through the eyes of a secular woman.
