Religion in the Anthropocene charts a new direction in humanities
scholarship through serious engagement with the geopolitical
concept of the Anthropocene. Drawing on religious studies,
theology, social science, history, philosophy, and what can be
broadly termed as environmental humanities, this collection
represents a groundbreaking critical analysis of diverse narratives
on the Anthropocene. The contributors to this volume recognize that
the Anthropocene began as a geological concept, the age of the
humans, but that its implications are much wider than this. Does
the Anthropocene idea challenge the possibility of a sacred Nature,
or is it a secularized theological anthropology more properly dealt
with through traditional concepts from Roman Catholic social
teaching on human ecology? Not all contributors to this volume
agree about the answers to these and many more different questions.
Readers will be challenged, provoked, and stimulated by this book.
