    from Wikipedia —Saint Hildegard of Bingen, O.S.B. (German: Hildegard von Bingen; Latin: Hildegardis Bingensis) (1098 – 17 September 1179), also known as Saint Hildegard, and Sibyl of the Rhine, was a German writer, composer, philosopher, Christian mystic, Benedictine abbess, visionary, and polymath.1 Elected a magistra by her fellow nuns in 1136, she founded the monasteries of Rupertsberg in 1150 and Eibingen in 1165. One of her works as a composer, the Ordo Virtutum, is an early example of liturgical drama and arguably the oldest surviving morality play.2She wrote theological, botanical and medicinal texts, as well as letters, liturgical songs, and poems, while supervising miniature illuminations in the Rupertsberg manuscript of her first work, Scivias.3

    Agnes has some big shoes to fill.

    St. Hildegard von Bingen has recently been named a Doctor of the Church. Only 35 Doctors have been proclaimed, and Hildegard is only the 4th woman to be proclaimed a Doctor.

    @Hunter7A better word for St. HIldegard would be polymath.
