Posters of History : Hildegard of Bingen ft. Eleanor Janega & Luke Waters
🕑 Added 2025-06-24 10:23:44 +0000 UTCThis week, we're joined by friend of the show and returning champion Eleanor Janega, as well as her 'We're Not So Different' podcast co-host Luke Waters, to talk about Hildegard of Bingen, a 12th century Benedictine Abbess. Known for her religious visions, and the writing, sermons and music that emerged from them, Hildegard is often considered a polymath, and as one of the founders of german scientific natural history.
We talk about Hildegard’s place in high medieval society, the breadth of her writing - from religious commentary to linguistics and natural science - and of course, whether she had the spirit of a Poster.
