Medieval Women: Hildegard of Bingen & Eleanor of Aquitaine

patrons, this is your ad-free version of this week's regular episode, enjoy! we answered a question from Ellen.

in this one, we revisit our occasional series on the lives of prominent Medieval women as we discuss Hildegard of Bingen and Eleanor of Aquitaine. though they made their impacts felt in different ways, they were each monumentally important. Hildegard was a polymath who made her mark in the realms of religion, music, and science. Eleanor, meanwhile, was raised from birth to be in politics, ruled realms, served as a diplomat, and heavily influenced the later cultural milieu. enjoy! 

Comments

Thoroughly enjoyed this episode, especially the info about Ordo Virtutum. A group in San Francisco did a production with Indian musical instruments for accompaniment. I had the delight of playing the devil. True. Devil is the only male. Fortunately for me, he doesn't sing.
