Hildegard of Bingen's unknown languagean edition, translation, anddiscussion /[electronic resource] :Sarah L. Higley. - 1st ed. - New York :Palgrave Macmillan,2007. - xvi, 246 p. :ill. - The new Middle Ages. - New Middle Ages (Palgrave Macmillan (Firm)).

Includes bibliographical references (p. [231]-237) and index.

The Lingua ignota and its place within a history of language invention -- Introduction: Hildegard's language as vineyard and edifice -- An unknown language by a visionary woman -- Glossolalia and glossographia -- Medieval language philosophy -- Fifteenth- to nineteenth-century language inventions -- Play and aesthetic in contemporary language invention -- Greening language : Hildegard's monastery garden -- Manuscripts, edition, and translation of the Lingua ignota -- Manuscript information-- Notes to Manuscript information -- The Riesencodex Lingua ignota with additions from the Berlin MS -- Notes to the translation -- Hildegard's Lingua alphabetized.

The Lingua Ignota, "brought forth" by the twelfth-century German nunHildegard of Bingen, provides 1012 neologisms for praise of Church andnew expression of the things of her world. Noting her visionary metaphors, her music, and various medieval linguistic philosophies, Higley examines how the"Unknown Language" makes arid signifiers green again. This text, however, is too often seen in too narrow a context: glossolalia, angelic language, secret code. Higley provides an edition and Englishtranslation of its glosses in the Riesencodex (with assistance from the Berlin MS) , but also places it within a history of imaginary language making from medieval times to the most contemporary projects in efforts to uncover this woman's bold involvement in an intellectual and creative endeavor thatspans centuries.
