SANTA HILDEGARDA DE BINGEN
LIBER DIVINORUM OPERUM
LIBRO DE LAS OBRAS DIVINAS
Hildegard von Bingen's drawings reveal the psychological process of her visions. her alchemical work in images.
her textual descriptions of her visions and her interpretations of them belie what she reveals, perhaps unconsciously, in her paintings.
“a scarab.
You dear little animal, are you still toiling away in order to live your beautiful myth?
How seriously and undiscouraged it works! If only you had a notion that you are performing an old myth, you would probably renounce your fantasies as we men have also given up playing at mythology.
The unreality nauseates one."
