Medieval documents reveal that for centuries of European history, singing for a person at the moment of death was considered to be the ideal accompaniment to a life's ending. Through investigations of four manuscripts as case studies, author Elaine Stratton Hild examines and recovers the music sung for the dying during the Middle Ages and considers the functions of the music--a lost art of comforting the dying and the grieving.
Elaine Stratton Hild serves as an editor with Corpus monodicum, a long-term research project housed at the Universität Würzburg (Germany). Her responsibilities include publishing volumes of previously unedited plainchant transcribed from medieval manuscripts. Hild's work with medieval plainchant has been supported by the DAAD (Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst), the University of Notre Dame Institute for Advanced Study, and the Fulbright Foundation. Her edition of proper tropes, Tropen zu den Antiphonen der Messe aus Quellen französischer Herkunft, was published in 2017.
