Part Two expounds on several of Hildegard’s Homilies, elucidating the theological brilliance that emanates from the creative exegesis she shapes to develop profound, interweaving themes.

Part Three deals with the wide-ranging reception of Hildegard’s works and her inspiring legacy, extending from theology to medicine. Her prophetic voice resounds in the morally urgent areas of creation theology and the corruption of church and political leadership.
