by Barbara Newman (Author)
Barbara Newman reintroduces English-speaking readers to an extraordinary and gifted figure of the twelfth-century renaissance. Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179) was mystic and writer, musician and preacher, abbess and scientist who used symbolic theology to explore the meaning of her gender within the divine scheme of things.With a new preface, bibliography, and discography, Sister of Wisdom is a landmark book in women's studies, and it will also be welcomed by readers in religion and history.
This is simply the best book ever done on St. Hildegard in English--a well-conceptualized work of remarkable erudition and vigorous style. Medievalists will love it, and it will generate debate in the field.--Robert I. Burns, S. J.
Barbara Newman is Associate Professor of English at Northwestern University.
