Hildegarde, abbesse du monastère de Bingen, vécut au temps des Croisades et de l'empereur Barberousse. De nos jours célèbre pour ses visions, ses écrits médicaux ou naturalistes, elle fut en son temps recherchée pour ses capacités prophétiques ainsi que pour la sagesse et le bon sens de ses conseils. Inexpérience visionnaire, le souci personnel d'échapper aux calomnies ou aux suspicions, ajoutés au désir bien compréhensible de ses proches d'exalter sa sainteté et de souligner l'exceptionnelle originalité de sa vie ont à terme produit une image déformée. Miracles et prophéties furent mis en exergue, la correspondance remaniée, voire manipulée, l'image de la sainte utilisée à des fins aléatoires. D'une œuvre en partie rédigée sous le signe de l'Apocalypse, on retient les aspects les plus spectaculaires, au détriment d'une approche exacte de la bénédictine. Il était certes plus facile de transformer l'abbesse en prophétesse enflammée que de scruter ses écrits, plus facile de basculer dans la légende que de faire son histoire. C'est en revenant aux sources, aux textes, que ce livre entend dresser un portrait de la visionnaire, une première approche qui puisse servir d'introduction. Hildegarde de Bingen ne fut pas une mystique mais une visionnaire, elle ne dévoila pas l'avenir pas plus qu'elle n'a anticipé sur nos découvertes scientifiques, mais elle lutta inlassablement contre les maux du temps, contre l'indignité des prêtres, l'impiété des empereurs ou la subversion cathare. Ranimant les énergies défaillantes, secouant les âmes inconstantes ou faibles, elle a préparé ses contemporains à la fin des temps, sans chercher à les effrayer inutilement. A ses yeux l'eschatologie n'est que le désir de faire retour aux origines sacrées et incorruptibles du monde, de s'y réfugier, d'échapper à la mort. Hildegarde resta toute sa vie une femme d'Église, respectueuse des institutions, une abbesse infatigable rappelant le message des Écritures, bref une femme de son temps, qui sut…

This book aims to collect and present the results of research done within the context of the project ‘The voice of silence / La voz del silencio: An interdisciplinary research project about literate women and women authors in the West-European late Middle Ages from a gender perspective (11th to 15th centuries)’. The project was a bilateral research project, with participants of the University of Chile in Santiago on the one hand and the Universities of Gent and Antwerpen on the other. Medieval scholars, literary historians and literary theorists joined forces. The angle from which the material was being studied, however, was always the same: gender being the central issue. The project focused on women as participants in late medieval society and culture of the Rhineland and the Low Countries. Indeed, all the researchers involved acquired their expertise in this field and/or the field of women’s literacy.Several members of this Flemish-Chilean project have contributed an essay to this book, but supplemented by guest authors. The guests are internationally renowned scholars reflecting an expertise in gender studies or in an aspect not covered by the team members of the project. Their contributions complete the research results of the project.The story told in this book is focused on literate women and gender. In the course of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, the voices of women authors, many of them religious and mystics, resounded in a literate society dominated by clerics. Hildegard of Bingen and Hadewijch, two of the most famous representatives of this ‘female voice’ are highlighted in Part I. These women were the forerunners of a new reading culture among (semi-)religious and even lay women in which the use of the vernacular was a decisive factor (Part II). Yet, from the thirteenth century onwards, and with increasing intensity towards the end of the Middle Ages, men once more tried to get a grip on women’s reading and writing. Aspects of these attemps are illustrated in part III.
