- Synopsis
- Recent decades have witnessed a surge of literature and activism from religious leaders and thinkers on the natural environment. This volume brings together some of the most thought-provoking examples of such writings from the nineteenth century up to today, spanning a variety of methodological approaches and religious traditions, viewpoints, and locations. Within three parts--the wilderness, the garden, and the city--are essays representing nature spiritualities, Asian traditions, Judaism, Islam, Christianity, and indigenous traditions. Each part contains a critical introduction by the editor which provides an overview of issues and guides students to key ideas. Ideal resource for courses on religion and the environment, religion and ecology, and religion and nature.
