HILDE
copyright 2007 by CBREEZE
Have you heard of this phenomenal woman? Not your everyday, garden-variety female, especially in medieval days, Hildegard ranks among the most notable human beings in history.
Blessed with many talents and abilities, Hildegard von Bingen was a revolutionary of sorts. Also known as Saint Hildegard, Sybil of the Rhine, and Blessed Hildegard, she displayed an irresitible spirit and vibrant intellect overcoming common barriers to women during the middle ages to achieve timeless transcendence.
Respected by commoners, bishops, popes, and kings, Hildegard was a Christian mystic, author, linguist, naturalist, herbalist, physician, scientist, philosopher, channeler, visionary, composer, counselor, poet, and German Benedictine abbess. Her outstanding and unusual contributions to society, religion, and humanity have been rediscovered by a new generation of spiritual seekers and students of medieval history, and celebrated for its significance to the human experience.
