4. Carmelite Missions: Saint Hildegard Of Bingen Summary of Hildegard's life and work, from CarmelNet.Category Society Religion and Spirituality...... Hildegard wrote a very long letter back to the Pope, filled with observations newlocation on a hill called the Rupertsberg, overlooking the Rhine near Bingen. http://carmelnet.org/missions/saints/hildegard/hildegard.htm

Most people assume that women were not very significant during the middle ages. This month's saint was not only an important holy woman, but a poet, scientist, musician, and political moralist as well. In her own day, her unique blend of talents led her to be called the "Sibyl of the Rhine." Hildegard was born in 1098, near the small town of Bockelheim in western Germany. Her father may have been a knight in the service of Count Meginhard of Spanheim. She was sickly as a child, and never enjoyed good health, though she lived to be 8 1. At 8 years of age, she was placed in the care of Blessed Jutta, Count Meginhard's sister. Jutta lived as a recluse in a cottage near the Abbey of St. Disibod, and taught the young girl a great deal about prayer and sanctity, as well as the more traditional education. By the time Hildegard was 15, Jutta had gained several followers, and established a hermitage community which followed the Rule of St. Benedict. Although Hildegard lived quietly and happily in this community, no one appreciated her growing sense of God's presence in her world. Like others who see events through the eyes of faith, she developed a fine sense of clarity and accuracy in the interpretation of human affairs. With the help of God's grace, she became known as one who could predict the future - at times she was embarrassed at what appeared to be inane ramblings at first. The truth of her perceptions only became obvious later.

Hildegard of Bingen (1098 - 1179) Abbess of Rupertsberg, which she herself founded, Hildegard of Bingen held an important position as a religious, a mystic, a diplomat, a writer on a wide variety of subjects and a composer. A visionary, she was highly respected, her advice widely sought by the powerful in church and state. As a poet she writes in a style replete with colourful imagery, as in her books of visions. Religious Music The music of Hildegard of Bingen is contained in her Symphonia armonie celestium revelationum (Symphonic Harmony of Celestial Revelations), the Latin texts dealing with the hierarchy of Heaven, from God, Father and Son to Confessors, Virgins and Innocents. Her monophonic musical language is based on a number of varied melodic formulae. Her morality play Ordo virtutum (Order of Virtues), written some 150 years after the Terentian verse plays of the nun Hrotswitha of Gandersheim, also includes music of a simpler and more syllabic kind.

Hildegard von Bingen's Mystical visionstranslated from Scivias by Bruce Hozeski; introduced by Matthew Fox. http://www.tl.infi.net/~ddisse/hildegar.html

Updated 03-13-03 Be sure to look at the index of "Other Women's Voices." for excerpts from translations of over 100 other women writers from before 1700. Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179) "...A BLAZING MIND LONGING TO SOAR ABOVE THE CLOUDS." Hildegard was the tenth child of of a noble German family. At the age of 8, she was sent to live with Jutta, the sister of a count whom Hildegard's father served as a knight. When Hildegard was 14, she, Jutta, and one or two others, were enclosed as anchorites. At some point Jutta's anchorhold grew into a Benedictine monastery, connected to the adjacent male monastery of St. Disibod. The number of nuns grew to about 10 at Jutta's death in 1136 and to about 20 twelve years later. After Jutta's death, Hildegard was named prioress, leader of the nuns but under the authority of the abbot of St. Disibod. Within a few years, Hildegard told her confessor of visionary experiences; he had her write them down and showed them to the abbot. The abbot and the local archbishop ordered Hildegard to continue writing. After some resistance, Hildegard agreed and began the ten-year task of writing what would become Scivias

Includes a limited discography. hildegard of bingen SYMPHONY OF THE HARMONY OF HEAVEN. HILDEGARD'S MUSIC http://www.uni-mainz.de/~horst/hildegard/music/music.html

HILDEGARD OF BINGEN: SYMPHONY OF THE HARMONY OF HEAVEN HILDEGARD'S MUSIC At the heart of Hildegard von Bingen's extraordinary creativity was her accomplishment in music. In the poetry and melody of her songs, she reveals the full authority, intelligence and striking originality of her genius. She wrote profusely as no woman before her. Even though she received no formal training in music, her talent and motivation drove her to write 77 chants and the first musical drama in history which she entitled "The Ritual of the Virtues." She writes in her autobiographical passages: "I composed and chanted plainsong in praise of God and the saints even though I had never studied either musical notation or singing." Unlike the mild, mainstream music of her day, her lyrical speech breaks into rhapsodic emotion; her zesty melodies soar up to two and one half octaves, leaping and swirling into flourishing roulades which leave the singer breathless. The poetic vision and thematic themes of her hymns encompass the vast expanse of all her writings. THE WIDE COMPASS OF HER MUSIC Hildegard's music can only be fully understood in the light of all her work. The beauty and depth of theme found in her theology, philosophy, cosmology and medicine, can all be found condensed in her music as in a jewel. For Hildegard as for the medieval, music was an all-embracing concept. It was the symphony of angels praising God, the balanced proportions of the revolving celestial spheres, the exquisite weaving of body and soul, the hidden design of nature's creations. It was the manifest process of life moving, expanding, growing towards the joy of its own deepest realizations and a profound unity of voices singing the praises of God here on earth. It was beauty, sound, fragrance and the flower of human artistry. Over 300 times in her writings, Hildegard uses music to illuminate spiritual truths.

At age 43 she became abbess of her community, a position whose responsibilities did not keep her from pursuing an astonishing variety of creative and scholarly accomplishments. Historians know Hildegard for her correspondence with bishops, popes, abbots, and kings; mystics for her book of visions; medical historians and botanists for her two books on natural history and medicine; and literary scholars for her morality play, the Ordo Virtutum Musicians are beginning to know Hildegard for her antiphons , hymns, and sequences, a large body of monophonic chants whose text and music are both by Hildegard.

This is how one of the most remarkably creative personalities of the Middle Ages, Hildegard of Bingen, describes herself: "Listen, there was once a king sitting on his throne. Around him stood great and wonderfully beautiful columns ornamented with ivory, bearing the banners of the king with great honor. Then it pleased the king to raise a small feather from the ground and he commanded it to fly. The feather flew not because of anything in itself but because the air bore it along. Thus am I." "A Feather on the Breath of God" draws upon Hildegard's large collection of music and poetry, the "Symphony of the Harmony of the Celestial Revelations" which she continued to enlarge and enrich throughout her life. It contains some of the finest songs ever written in the Middle Ages and a number of the most elaborate, the Sequences are recorded here for the first time. They are so profoundly motivated by Hildegard's devotional life that it is hard to tell whether she is exploring music and poetry through spirituality or vice versa. This is the work of deeply engaged artistry; in Hildegard's words, "of writing, seeing, hearing and knowing, all in one manner."

Miniature by Hildegard (seated at bottom). Hildegard of Bingen was born in 1098, to a family of minor German nobility. As the tenth child, she was dedicated to the church, and sent to an anchoress, Jutta, for education. When Jutta died in 1136, Hildegard was elected head of the small convent at Disibodenberg. She moved to Bingen on the banks of the Rhine in 1150, where she administered a convent and a monastery. She died in 1179 at the age of 81. Throughout her life, beginning as a young child, Hildegard had visions. But it was not till her early forties that she began to have the symbolic and didactic visions for which she became famous. At first she wrote nothing down, but when she fell seriously ill, she blamed this on the decision not to reveal her visions. After consulting with the pope and St Bernard of Clairvaux, she began to write the visions down and publish them. She wrote several books, including The Book of Life's Merits (1150-63); The Book of Subtleties of the Diverse Nature of Things (1150); and (most famously) The Book of Divine Works (1163).

Hildegard of Bingen, Visionary 17 September 1179 "Listen: there was once a king sitting on his throne. Around him stood great and wonderfully beautiful columns ornamented with ivory, bearing the banners of the king with great honor. Then it pleased the king to raise a small feather from the ground, and he commanded it to fly. The feather flew, not because of anything in itself but because the air bore it along. Thus am I, a feather on the breath of God." Hildegard of Bingen has been called by her admirers "one of the most important figures in the history of the Middle Ages," and "the greatest woman of her time." Her time was the 1100's (she was born in 1098), the century of Eleanor of Aquitaine, of Peter Abelard and Bernard of Clairvaux The community of nuns at Mount St. Disibode was growing rapidly, and they did not have adequate room. Hildegard accordingly moved her nuns to a location near Bingen, and founded a monastery for them completely independent of the double monastery they had left. She oversaw its construction, which included such features (not routine in her day) as water pumped in through pipes. The abbot they had left opposed their departure, and the resulting tensions took a long time to heal.

"Listen: there was once a king sitting on his throne. Around Him stood great and wonderfully beautiful columns ornamented with ivory, bearing the banners of the king with great honor. Then it pleased the king to raise a small feather from the ground, and he commanded it to fly. The feather flew, not because of anything in itself but because the air bore it along. Thus am I, a feather on the breath of God." Hildegard of Bingen has been called by her admirers "one of the most important figures in the history of the Middle Ages," and "the greatest woman of her time." Her time was the 1100's (she was born in 1098), the century of Eleanor of Aquitaine, of Peter Abelard and Bernard of Clairvaux , of the rise of the great universities and the building of Chartres cathedral. She was the daughter of a knight, and when she was eight years old she went to the Benedict ine monastery at Mount St Disibode to be educated. The monastery was in the Celtic tradition, and housed both men and women (in separate quarters). When Hildegard was eighteen, she became a nun. Twenty years later, she was made the head of the female community at the monastery. Within the next four years, she had a series of visions, and devoted the ten years from 1140 to 1150 to writing them down, describing them (this included drawing pictures of what she had seen), and commenting on their interpretation and significance. During this period, Pope Eugenius III sent a commission to inquire into her work. The commission found her teaching orthodox and her insights authentic, and reported so to the Pope, who sent her a letter of approval. (He was probably encouraged to do so by his friend and former teacher
