Dear Onnie,
Besides more recent editions of Hildebert's _Carmina_ (B. Haure/au, Paris:
Pedone-Lauriel, 1882; A. Brain Scott, Leipzig: Teubner, 1969), there are two
editions of Hildebert's _Opera (omnia) tam edita quam inedita_, or of what
his editors believed to be his writings (ed. A. Beaugendre, Paris 1708; ed.
J. J. Bourasse/, Paris 1854), and Bourasse/'s edition was reprinted in
Migne's _Patrologia Latina_, vol. 171. This is where I would check first. I
don't know of English or German translations, but you might check the
bibliography of Peter von Moos, _Hildebert von Lavardin: 1056-1133.
Humanitas an der Schwelle des ho"fischen Zeitalters_, Stuttgart: Hiersemann,
1965 (= Pariser Historische Studien, 3), or publications on Radegund
herself, like the following:
