El dios de Hildegard. La experiencia mística como legitimación de una visión de mundo

Pensamiento Revista de investigación e información filosófica January 13, 2026 Felix Alejandro Cristiá

Hildegard von Bingen's mystical experience can support a worldview that integrates both theological and political dimensions. From the perspective of medieval philosophy grounded in philosophical anthropology, the article clarifies essential concepts of mystical experience, analyzes Hildegard's visions and their relationship to her era's worldview, and evaluates the political role her teachings may play. To affirm the Catholic Church's position, it is essential to emphasize the preeminence of the Son in dogma and adopt a specific worldview.
