Her hands shaking with emotion, Elisa quickly read aloud... "Hildegard von Bingen lived in the Middle Ages, around the year 1000. She composed Hymns to the Lord collected in a work called 'Symphony of the Harmony of Heavenly Revelations.' She taught medicine, theology, and wrote scientific treatises..." A delightful book, illustrated by Chiara Carrer, dedicated to the great Hildegard von Bingen, pioneer of natural healing, philosopher, musician, and medieval mystic.
