Title A name given to the resource Arts/Humanities/Social Sciences Description An account of the resource The broad collection of "Arts/Humanities/Social Sciences" highlights those women who dared in the areas of the arts (visual and performing), the humanities (philosophy, law, history, literature, religion, languages, communication), and the social sciences ( anthropology, archaeology, sociology, economics, psychology, political science). It also includes female intellectuals who were excluded from formal methods of education, but who advanced our collective knowledge of the aforementioned fields. Each of the fields represented started off as a male-dominated field. Although women have integrated all of these areas, they are still not representative in many such as religion, political science, law, economics, psychology, archaeology, history, and so on. This collection hopes to expand the readers' knowledge of women in these subjects and encourage their further study by women. Person An individual, biographical data, birth and death, etc. Birth Date 1098 Birthplace County Palatine of the Rhine, Holy Roman Empire Death Date 1179 Occupation Writer, composer, philosopher, Benedictine abbess Biographical Text Bingen was a medieval abbess, mystic, composer, and author. Hildegard of Bingen began receiving visions at a young age, but kept quiet for fear of how those visions would be interpreted. As an adult, Hildegard became head of her monastic community at Bingen in present-day Germany and began writing music for her nuns to sing as prayer. She wrote a medical treatise for her community as well as recording her visions after receiving encouragement. She became an important cultural figure whose advice was sought after by the movers and shakers of her day. She has been called the Sibyl of the Rhine.
