Hildegard von Bingen , "O Euchari" 1985

[ohholydyke]

do you have a favorite HIldegard von Bingen hymn? I only know O Euchari in leta via but I just adore it.

Yes! Both of these get at St. Hildegard’s approach of everything being interconnected and working towards care and unity through God, and the idea of the Holy Spirit as a comforter and healer for the wounded and self-punishing, core aspects of St. Hildegard’s work that I’m attached to.

14. favorite book you read this year

idk if it’s my favorite but the giant, o’brien by hilary mantel has reeeeeeally stuck with me. i spent an inordinate amount of time this year thinking about and chewing on and pulling the stuffing out of historical fiction and one thing that has become more apparent the more i read is the weird role that genre awareness plays in historical fiction?

like with some books you can kind of run your hand over the narrative and feel the shapes of the types of sources the author used to put the story together, and as a big research fan and citations reader i often like this! however it also is extra apparent when the author has failed to research enough to support the story or failed to provide enough story to cover the research. in this metaphor historical fiction is a big tent idk. and some authors when sensing some failing in their tent inject a weird vibe of self awareness of their stance or their reader’s stance as a Person In The Present? which then so often feels more like a patronizing cop out?

but what hilary mantel does if you will excuse my continuing to strangle this metaphor is balance the story and the research and the awareness of both as one scaffolding so smooth it’s genuinely inseparable from itself. it stops being a tent and starts being an edifice. having read the cromwell trilogy and now currently reading a place of greater safety it was really interesting to read a novel of hers that feels like more of a meditation on the process? her thinking through the mechanics of her type of storytelling? everyone go read hilary mantel.

哇，以前的我的taste很不错嘛！

I forgot how much we loved this song until it just got randomly dug out from my Liked playlist!

This was added in by 2019 Lyndis, who was reminded of this song by a random play from a local playlist stored in Kyle Hyde [our first retainer, "laptop"], which was added likely in 2016.

Another one of this "hey, good taste, old Lyndises!" is this one!

Congratulations! You've done it! You've read the entire novel! Well, at least the cliff's notes version of it. Really truly. This was also a test to see if loads of paragraphs made tumblr antsy, but... Apparently not? Hrmn. Is it really just wordcount, then? Mysterious. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed - I sure did, even if I probably should've used the time to write.
