About This Book

Hildegard of Bingen (1098–1179) was a Benedictine abbess, visionary, composer, healer, and one of the most extraordinary mystics the Western world has ever known. In this beautifully curated introduction, Gabriele Uhlein draws on Hildegard's timeless writings and divine inspirations to offer readers an intimate encounter with her luminous inner world. Here, Hildegard's voice rings across the centuries — celebrating the viriditas (the greening power of life), the goodness of creation, and the sacred presence woven through all living things. This is not merely a book to be read, but a book to be sat with, breathed into, and returned to again and again.

Why This Book Is Perfect For You

If you are drawn to Christian mysticism, medieval spirituality, sacred feminine wisdom, or the contemplative traditions — this slim and luminous volume is a rare gift. Bear & Company's 1983 edition is a collector's piece, and Hildegard's words remain as alive and nourishing today as they were nine centuries ago. A perfect companion for meditation, prayer, or quiet reflection.
