Hildegard and Mystics
Manage episode 384768661 series 3397796
Inspired by her interest in Hildegard's unique music that has been virtually forgotten for centuries, our host Emma and her co-hosts Christian and Grace explore medieval mystics, with a particular emphasis on Hildegard and Bernard. Tune in as they bring their many questions to our guest, Dr. Ben Wheaton, a Ph.D. graduate from the Centre for Medieval Studies at the University of Toronto and author of many books on the Middle Ages. Discover why Hildegard was called a mystic, who the mystics were, and what we can learn from them.
Show Notes:
Dr. Wheaton had some great book recommendations for our listeners. If you’re interested in reading a primary source which is more challenging but rich, check out A History of the Franks by Gregory of Tours: https://a.co/d/6JMz0lV
Some other books of historical fiction based in the middle ages which Dr. Wheaton enjoyed very much:
Catherine Called Birdy by Karen Cushman: https://a.co/d/6q0ZXbs
The Door in the Wall by Marguerite De Angeli: https://a.co/d/jcmlwS7
The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis: https://a.co/d/h1Tokp3
