Leading scholars reflect critically on the kinds of appeal to the
Bible that have been made in environmental ethics and ecotheology.
"Ecological Hermeneutics" reflects critically on the kinds of
appeal to the Bible that have been made in environmental ethics and
ecotheoloogy; engages with biblical texts with a view towards
exploring their contribution to an ecological ethics; and, explores
the kind of hermeneutic necessary for such engagement to be
fruitful for contemporary theology and ethics. Crucial to such
broad reflection is the bringing together of a range of
perspectives: biblical studies, historical theology, hermeneutics,
and theological ethics. The thematic coherence of the book is
provided by the running focus on the ways in which biblical texts
have been, or might be, read. This is not a volume on ecotheology;
but rather on ecological hermeneutics. Indeed, some essays may show
where biblical texts, or particular approaches in the history of
interpretation, represent anthropocentric or even anti-ecological
moves. One of the overall aims of the book will be to suggest how,
and why, an ecological hermeneutic might be developed, and the
kinds of intepretive choices that are required in such a
development.
