Hildegard von Bingen's Mystical Visions, Translated from Scivias by, Bruce Hozeski. The author is a Professor of English, past president, and founder of the International Hildegard von Bingen Studies in 1984. He is an inspiration to anyone in this area of study. The powerful documentation in this book is translated from one of the most evolved visionaries for individuals to experience as it creates a paradox within the soul struggling for more knowledge to the existence on how the visions celebrate wisdom and insight to understand the truthful simplicity within them. Hildegard's artwork correlating to the writings is a phenomenon to the 'material' art world. Karan Schneider, PhD., MS., BBA, GC-C, CH-C, SC-C -Founder BABS Bakery. [...]

3-0 out of 5 stars incomplete
I was disappointed to see that not all Hildegarde's visions have been translated and included.The editing seems primarily to eliminate those visions popularly believed to refer to the future "end times".Almost the entire section of "vision eleven", dealing with that subject, has been edited out.
The book is definitely useful as a reference for the character of St. Hildegarde, and the "language" of dreams & visions, however I was, as I said, disappointed with what seems to be a "censoring" of the material.

5-0 out of 5 stars An Awesome, thought provoking book
I don't remember reading a book before that provoked such awe of God. Her visions are vivid and her words invoke realistic mind pictures. She interprets a lot and sometimes writes what she heard God say. Some of thethings she believes God told her, I am not sure I accept, but all in allthe work inspires me to want to make God the center of my life. It is notalways the easiest reading, but is understandable -- the translator did anadmirable Job. I will look for more of her work. ... Read more

Product Description
One of two major medical treatises by medieval healerHildegard von Bingen, presented in its entirety for the first time inEnglish during the 900th anniversary of her birth.* A seminal text in the development of Western herbal medicine.* Presents nine categories of healing systems--Plants, Elements,* Trees, Stones, Fish, Birds, Animals, Reptiles, and Metals--and* elaborates on their medicinal use.* Closely related to Eastern medical approaches that are gaining* respect today.

At a time when few women could write and most were denied a formaleducation, Hildegard von Bingen became a legendary healer, visionary,musician, artist, poet, and saint. Her works include twenty-sevensymphonic compositions; Scivias, a compilation of her visions; and hertwo major medical works, Causae et Curae, a medical compendium, andPhysica, published here in English in its entirety for the first time.

Physica has a strong affinity with the Eastern medical approachesgaining great respect today. The modern reader interested in naturalhealing will recognize the enormous truth in the theories of this12th-century physician, which remind us that our cures for illnessdepend on our natural world and our place in it. ...

Priscilla Throop's fine translation of Hildegard's PHYSICA is an exacting, heart-felt treasure, valuable to scholars and laymen alike. With this, and her more recent translation of Hildegard's CAUSES AND CURES, today's reader gets a clear view of Hildegard's scientific, medical world.

Hildegard von Bingen's PHYSICA, Translated from the Latin by, Priscilla Throop includes 'nine-books' of healing systems while elaborating on how to prepare and apply various remedies. A correlation with Oriental medical approaches recognizes an enormous truth to the theories that are effective today. A busy life can lead to a busy disease, so in taking time to understand how to assist a busy life, as well as understanding healing work from the spirit first, in a great respect for God-given balancing.

4-0 out of 5 stars Interesting, but challenging
I have tried to use this book once or twice. One of the things that still make me giggle is using lion's ears to combat deafness. Then I remembered all these animal body-parts that are still being harvested for their medical qualities that are bringing the animals into extinction -- like is the case with the rhinoceros and the shark. So I stop giggling and stick to the plant sections.

The recipes that Hildegard uses are sometimes hard to do because I simply have no idea what some of the plants she uses are. She also uses wine a lot, which is new to me. I come from a tea tradition, so boiling things in wine is a true novelty. Maybe this is why I have not used it much since it can be very different from what I know. On the other hand, it has provided me wonderful new experiences in the herbal work! I have not used the mineral section yet, and only stuck to the plant section.

At the very least, it is a fascinating treatise on medieval medicine. I do recommend it!

5-0 out of 5 stars Engaging, Historical Compendium
From herbal treatments to stone power, Hildegard covers it all in this excellent translation by Priscilla Throop.Anyone interested in the holistic and deep level personhood approach of Hildegard (she was much more than her music) will count this book as essential to their collection.Hildegard as theologian, philosopher, musician, and natural healer can all be seen in Physica.Enjoy!!!

4-0 out of 5 stars a contribution to the study of medieval medicine
Ms.Throop provides a learned introduction to Hildegard and a fluent translation of an important medical text.Scholars and interested laymen will benefit from her efforts.

4-0 out of 5 stars Despite Some Historical Inaccuracies, this Book Shines!
Having read several of the more scholarly treatises on Abbess Hildegard of Bingen, I'm finding it a breath of fresh air to experience her as a living being.The book is beautifully written and is not afraid to present Hildegard as all too human, dealing with the concerns and fears that must have accompanied her extraordinary visionary gifts.Although Hildegard would never have called herself a "feminist", since she embraced the precepts and beliefs of Catholicism, including the superiority of an all-powerful male God, she held women in high regard and challenged many of the assumptions of that time about women the value of women in the eyes of God.It is difficult to imagine that the Catholic church never officially granted sainthood to Hildegard; however, she is considered a saint in Germany - and I agree!

3-0 out of 5 stars Good story with historical flaws
This book really does make Hildegard come to life, by presenting her in the context of her times and her beliefs. But there are lots of weird little historical mistakes that suddenly snap the reader out of 12thcentury Germany, making it hard to stay with the story line. For example: Amonk says he thinks the nuns should just stick with their rosaries--butrosaries didn't exist then. The margravine is desribed as wearing a dresswith lace at the sleeves, but lacemaking was still several centuries in thefuture. Bernard of Clairvaux is described as having a beard, but monks wereclean-shaven--it was the friars of the next century that wore beards. Andseveral characters supposedly wear velvet, but it hadn't been invented yet.I really wish the author had taken the time to research a little better,since Hildegard was (and is) such an appealing character. Historical novelsthat aren't true to their period are as annoying to read as stories withgeographical or technological errors.Putting the archbishop in velvet islike putting Rome in France or giving President Lincoln a telephone--kindamakes it hard to believe the story after that.

4-0 out of 5 stars Hildegard comes alive.
The life, the country, the contemporaries, and the political times of Hildegard come alive in this book. She was more than a religious woman who could write music - she had a great deal of courage and determination which even today would make her an outstanding feminist. Read it while listening to her music and find your dreams taking yyou to another world. ... Read more

Product Description
Medieval saint, mystic, healer, and visionary—Hildegard von Bingen has made a comeback. She is now popular in natural healing circles, in medieval and women's studies, and among those interested in investing the everyday with the spiritual.

Hildegard's Healing Plants is a gift version and new translation of the "Plant" section of Physica, Hildegard's classic work on health and healing. Hildegard comments on 230 plants and grains—most of which are still grown in home gardens and sold at local health food stores. In one of many entries on women's health, Hildegard writes, "Also if a pregnant woman labors much in childbirth, let someone cook pleasant herbs, such as fennel and assurum, in water with fear and great moderation, squeeze out the water, and place them while they are warm around her thighs and back, tied gently with a piece of cloth, so that her pain and her closed womb is opened more pleasantly and easily."

Whether read for the sheer enjoyment of Hildegard's earthy, intelligent voice ("Let a man who has an overabundance of lust in his loins cook wild lettuce in water and pour it over himself in a sauna") or for her encyclopedic and often still relevant understanding of natural health, Hildegard's Healing Plants is a treasure for gardeners, natural healing enthusiasts, and Hildegard fans everywhere. ...

4-0 out of 5 stars Interesting but outdated
I found this book to be interesting and I love Hildegard's for her abilities in bringing information forward in a time when it was not always well received.She is no doubt a great icon and a lady who has no fear about what people might say or not.This book in todays' age is somewhat outdated, using animal fats like deer mallow can still be done but there are no reasons to use this anymore as other things are available and are more natural such as beeswax and olive oil.When you are in tune with nature you shouldn't use animal parts, all wildlife is sacred.I give this book 4 stars because in those days it was pioneering work for a woman with great vision and strength!Love the description of plants, again in today's age it could be much expanded.

Editorial Review

Product Description
Webster's bibliographic and event-based timelines are comprehensive in scope, covering virtually all topics, geographic locations and people. They do so from a linguistic point of view, and in the case of this book, the focus is on "Hildegard Von Bingen," including when used in literature (e.g. all authors that might have Hildegard Von Bingen in their name). As such, this book represents the largest compilation of timeline events associated with Hildegard Von Bingen when it is used in proper noun form. Webster's timelines cover bibliographic citations, patented inventions, as well as non-conventional and alternative meanings which capture ambiguities in usage. These furthermore cover all parts of speech (possessive, institutional usage, geographic usage) and contexts, including pop culture, the arts, social sciences (linguistics, history, geography, economics, sociology, political science), business, computer science, literature, law, medicine, psychology, mathematics, chemistry, physics, biology and other physical sciences. This "data dump" results in a comprehensive set of entries for a bibliographic and/or event-based timeline on the proper name Hildegard Von Bingen, since editorial decisions to include or exclude events is purely a linguistic process. The resulting entries are used under license or with permission, used under "fair use" conditions, used in agreement with the original authors, or are in the public domain. ... Read more
