Hildegard of Bingen and Her Music Drama Ordo Virtutum: A Critical Review of Scholarship, Eckehard Simon's 2011 peer reviewed article in European Medieval Drama, surveys scholarship on the play's dating, first performance and manuscript transmission, and is the basis for describing its 1152 dedication and consecration of virgins occasions as competing, unresolved possibilities rather than settled fact. Its strength is that it is peer reviewed scholarship specifically surveying and weighing the competing scholarly positions rather than asserting just one. Its limit is that as a survey article its own conclusions rest on the underlying primary manuscript evidence, which a reader wanting the fullest detail should also consult directly.
