Wege zu Wissen und Weisheit

Más información sobre el libro

The ‹Wege zu Wissen und Weisheit‹ (Ways to Knowledge and Wisdom) provide a comprehensive picture of Hildegard‹s vision of God, the cosmos and human beings in sensuous images and subtle terms. Whereas it is in God that the path from self-knowledge appears through the eternal foreknowledge of creation to the recognition of living creatures, human beings can only know themselves and the cosmos by knowing God. Hildegard‹s synopsis of knowledge and wisdom in God and man shows vividly her original and the same time traditional combination of visionary and mystical experience, ethical responsibility and philosophical astuteness.
