<div><p class="b">Perhaps the least studied of Hildegard of Bingen’s writings, <I>Solutions to Thirty-Eight Questions</i> is translated in this volume into English for the first time from the original Latin.<BR><BR>In this work of exegesis, Hildegard (1098–1179) resolves thorny passages of Scripture, theological questions, and two issues in hagiographic texts. <I>Solutions to Thirty-Eight Questions</i> joins Hildegard’s <I>Homilies on the Gospels</i>, which were directed to her nuns, as evidence of the seer’s exegetical writing as well as her authority as an exegete. The twelfth-century saint wrote in standard genres of exegesis—homilies and <I>solutiones</i>—and her interpretations of Scripture were widely sought, including by male audiences.</p></div>
