Summary note

Contemporary interest in the work of Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179) has somewhat overshadowed her monastic life at the school of Saint Benedict. This work of two volumes and four booklets reflects her conceptions of monasticism, at once authentic and deeply rooted in tradition. To her community, the thoughtful superior delivers her prophetic Testament of her notions of the fundamental. Hildegard's rich writing, punctuated by three re-readings of the history of salvation, notably includes the commentary on the Creed of Saint Athanasius, the Life of Saint Rupert, and an extensive spiritual meditation intermingling prose and liturgical poetry. These texts presented in French and Latin in the version of the Riesencodex, written under the supervision of the abbess herself.
