Protagonist
Anima — the Human Soul
Anima
- Costume
- Plain linen shift; barefoot; later given a heavy embroidered cloak when wounded.
- Voice
- Soprano. Soaring, irregular phrasing. Hildegard's hardest part — written for a singer who could project worry without faltering.
- Arc
- Welcomed → wearies → falls → returns wounded → is raised → joins the chorus.
- Modern descendant
- Every protagonist of every coming-of-age film since 1980.
