Title: A gross mistreatment of a wonderful mystic, w/gd photos
Review: It is terrible shame that the best affordable set of reproductions of Hildegard's images is by Fox on Fox. His text is a series of misquotes which misrepresents his source throughout all his commentary, juxtaposing quotes to put words in Hildegard's mouth, often ones which would have enraged her. There is a costly but much better reproduction of the visions by A. Fuhrkotter published by Turnhout, Belgium in good library collections or for those who can afford it. I encourage anyone interested in Hildegard to go for the reputable scholars like Newman, Flanagan, Davies, and Hart just to name a few.
Is the review positive or negative?
