Placing Nature on the Borders of Religion, Philosophy and Ethics

Beschreibung

Placing Nature furthers the dialogue on religion, ethics, and the environment by exploring three interrelated concepts: to recreate, to replace and to restore. This book self-consciously reflects on the intersections of environmental philosophy, environmental theology, and religion and ecology, stressing the importance of how place interprets us and how we interpret place. This work is a unique volume in its serious engagement with theology and religious studies on the issues of ecological restoration and the meaning of place.
