The Life of Bingen hildegarde
In the Latin Pastor Collection, volume 197 (Patrolia Latina vol.197), Goldfried and Theodoric once wrote biographical notes of hildegarde. Hildegarde was born into a noble family, under the leadership of Count Benheim (the Benheim family is a close relative of Hohenstaufen, the royal family of Hohenstaufen). She was the tenth in the family and was born weak, so when she was eight years old (perhaps for political reasons), her parents handed her over to the church to pay tithes. Hildegarde entered a monastery near Deutsch Boddenberg and was under the guardianship of Uta (Uta Uta, sister of Count Meinhard of Spanheim family). At that time, Yuta was very popular and attracted many followers, forming a small monastery for women. 1 136 After Uta's death, hildegarde was elected as the leader of this society. Finally, he led the people to move to Rupert's Castle in Bingen, Rhine, and established a new monastery. Her achievements in literature and thought have also been compared with Dante and william blake by later generations. 12 century is an era of sectarian separation and religious incitement. No matter how strange and far-reaching the doctrine is, it may soon gather a group of believers. Hildegarde criticized sectarian separation. In fact, she has been preaching her opposition to sectarian division all her life, especially the "Casa" faction. When she was very young, she said that she had "second sight". 1 14 1 years later, when she was elected as the leader of the monastery, hildegarde was summoned by the prophet and ordered her to "write down what you saw". At first, she was hesitant and reserved about whether to write down her second sight, but it put an unspeakable burden on her mind and even caused physical illness. Finally, she was persuaded by the members of the monastery and began to write down her second visual content.
