Wilkinson, Jemima

Wilkinson, Jemima
(1752-1819) Уилкинсон, Джемайма
Религиозный деятель. Называла себя "Всеобщим другом общества" ["Universal Publick Friend"]. Ее религиозные воззрения сформировались в период серьезной болезни, пережитой ей в 1776, когда у нее якобы было видение о том, что она умерла и вернулась на землю во второй раз как посланница Господа. Ее взгляды представляли собой смесь воззрений квакеров [Quakers], пророчеств о втором пришествии, мистической интерпретации собственных снов. Также призывала к обету безбрачия. В 1794 основала секту "Всеобщих друзей" [Universal Friends] и вместе с последователями создала общину [commune] в Джерусалем-Тауншип [Jerusalem Township], шт. Нью-Йорк, выступала с проповедями в штатах Новой Англии [New England].
