About this book

Sister of Wisdom: St. Hildegard's Theology of the Feminine by Newman, Barbara. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780520066151.

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 womens studies, and it will also be welcomed by readers in religion and history.
