Summary: Reminds me of my Austrian nanny.
Comment: First of all, Hildegard was not the first German mystic. She was, perhaps, the first published German Christian mystic.

I admit this was my first time reading any of her works. Perhaps I chose a non-representative one, or lack appropriate perspective.

Her visions, a weak imitation of the biblical Samuel, come off like the imperious Tuetonic finger wangling rant of someone cooped up too long in the convent. Reminds me of a Austrian nanny I once had. Had Hildegard been a Harold, I doubt she would enjoy the stature she holds today.
