Book Synopsis Finding Hildegard by : Gregg Koskela
Download or read book Finding Hildegard written by Gregg Koskela and published by . This book was released on 2019-11-18 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each day, it seems another Christian institution or leader breaks our trust, raising questions about whether faith is an asset or a liability for living today. After almost three decades as a pastor, Gregg Koskela watched the disillusionment and pain grow as their church community splintered and broke apart. Looking for wisdom and a perspective on faith that has stood the test of time, he found Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179)--a remarkable medieval woman who experienced the living vitality of God in all of creation. Her mystical visions are wild, but her faith is rooted in the gritty earth, seeing in the incarnation of Jesus an antidote to our modern tendency to separate the spiritual from the physical world.Hildegard reminds us that though institutions and relationships break, God is still worth seeking. Koskela weaves his own experience with her life and words, honestly sharing his own journey toward finding this God who Hildegard makes so life giving.

Book Synopsis The Book of Divine Works by : St. Hildegard of Bingen
Download or read book The Book of Divine Works written by St. Hildegard of Bingen and published by Catholic University of America Press. This book was released on 2018-10-16 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Completed in 1173, The Book of Divine Works (Liber Divinorum Operum) is the culmination of the Visionary’s Doctor’s theological project, offered here for the first time in a complete and scholarly English translation. The first part explores the intricate physical and spiritual relationships between the cosmos and the human person, with the famous image of the universal Man standing astride the cosmic spheres. The second part examines the rewards for virtue and the punishments for vice, mapped onto a geography of purgatory, hellmouth, and the road to the heavenly city. At the end of each Hildegard writes extensive commentaries on the Prologue to John’s Gospel (Part 1) and the first chapter of Genesis (Part 2)—the only premodern woman to have done so. Finally, the third part tells the history of salvation, imagined as the City of God standing next to the mountain of God’s foreknowledge, with Divine Love reigning over all.

She also gently touches our worst experiences and offers St. Hildegard’s light for our liberation and fullness of life. Like all of us today, St. Hildegard dealt with a world in turmoil. She believed spiritual development was the key to peace in troubled times. With her guidance, read, reflect, pray, discern, journal, heal, befriend your soul, and discover your mystic self.

Book Synopsis Hildegard of Bingen by : Fiona Maddocks
Download or read book Hildegard of Bingen written by Fiona Maddocks and published by Image. This book was released on 2015-03-18 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twelfth-century German abbess Hildegard of Bingen would have been remarkable in any age. Today, her growing reputation as a composer of religious music has overshadowed the astonishing variety of her accomplishments and her part in the scientific, cultural, and theological revolution of the pre-Renaissance, from religion and mysticism to medicine and sex. Scivias, her book of apocalyptic visions, with its extraordinary and compelling illustrations, would alone have been enough to endure her lasting fame. The story of Hildegard's life, from her entry into a monastery at Disibodenberg on the Rhine as a child, through the exploration of her pent-up genius in middle years, to her eventual admission to the German canon of saints, is here told against a rich background of the years of the Crusades, the flowering of monasticism, papal schism and heresy. The forceful character that emerges challenges any image of demurely subjugated womanhood associated with the period. Hildegard's story is as fascinating as that of any figure in the Middle Ages, and she and her musical legacy continue to be the subject of debate a thousand years later.

Book Synopsis Hildegard of Bingen’s Unknown Language by : S. Higley
Download or read book Hildegard of Bingen’s Unknown Language written by S. Higley and published by Springer. This book was released on 2007-12-09 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lingua Ignota, "brought forth" by the twelfth-century German nun Hildegard of Bingen, provides 1012 neologisms for praise of Church and new expression of the things of her world. Noting her visionary metaphors, her music, and various medieval linguistic philosophies, Higley examines how the "Unknown Language" makes arid signifiers green again. This text, however, is too often seen in too narrow a context: glossolalia, angelic language, secret code. Higley provides an edition and English translation of its glosses in the Riesencodex (with assistance from the Berlin MS) , but also places it within a history of imaginary language making from medieval times to the most contemporary projects in efforts to uncover this woman s bold involvement in an intellectual and creative endeavor that spans centuries.
