Moving beyond the literary, this lesson on Hildegard of Bingen’s Physica touches on science, social studies, history, religion, music, and art to foster an imaginative and practical experience that encourages students to initiate productive conversations across several disciplines and to contribute to newly emerging fields such as the medical humanities.
