Image description

Margery Kempe (c. 1373–after 1438) was an English Christian mystic, known for writing through dictation The Book of Margery Kempe, a work considered by some to be the first autobiography in the English language. The original was dictated by her to a priest of Lynn and this is probably a copy made from the original, perhaps under Margery's supervision.
