★ ERĒMIA · female · the top woman of her age · 1098–1179 · Germany ★

Abbess, composer, natural philosopher, physician, and visionary — a one-woman university whose work spanned theology, medicine, botany, and a surviving body of music unlike anything of her era. One of the generations of women — the foremost of her age, restored to the record — in UD0's ERĒMIA female sub-domain.

The Four Natures

each facet emerges by one of four natures

natural
of the body and the lived age — the woman in her time, against its door
ethereal
of the erased and the nearly-lost — the work destroyed, scattered, or scrubbed from the record
spiritual
of the soul and the voice — the mind that spoke and was, at last, heard
electrical
of the system and the made — the science, the engine, the theorem, the built thing

Her Place in the Line

the age, and the restoration

Her Age
1098–1179 · Germany

Abbess, composer, natural philosopher, physician, and visionary — a one-woman university whose work spanned theology, medicine, botany, and a surviving body of music unlike anything of her era.

The Restoration
top woman of her age

She corresponded with popes and emperors and was finally named a Doctor of the Church in 2012 — recognition eight centuries late.

The Facets

Hildegard of Bingen's work and her place in the record as ACI .agents (2)

A cited history, rendered not invented. Hildegard of Bingen is part of the documented record; her achievements are summarized and no copyrighted text is reproduced — works are named and described, never quoted. She is catalogued here as the foremost woman of her generation in the FEMALE · THE GENERATIONS timeline of UD0's ERĒMIA domain, which restores, age by age, the women the canon left out — beginning with Enheduanna (~2300 BCE), the first author known by name; the named record does not reach further back, so she is the genuine start. Living women are honored elsewhere by citation, not minted here. Each facet is named by its nature.
