Reading the Bible Amid the Environmental Crisis: Interdisciplinary Insights to Ecological Hermeneutics ventures into the realms of love, loss, despair, and compassion, demonstrating the profound interconnectedness of ecology with every facet of human existence. Drawing from diverse disciplines such as trauma theory, affect theory, ethics, animal studies, posthumanism philosophy, and environmental humanities. Sebastien Doane intertwines biblical texts and theoretical frameworks to challenge traditional methodologies, presenting a fresh perspective on the ecological crisis of our time. This book argues for a vital role of biblical studies in addressing the ecological challenge, acknowledging the Bible's profound influence on Western cultures. Doane advocates for critical examination of anthropocentrism in biblical texts, exploring innovative ways to read the Bible in the Anthropocene.

Industry Reviews

Ground-breaking, thought-provoking, stirring, and magnificently well-read. This book gushes with life, connecting landscapes, living beings, and natural forces, with the divine enmeshed in Scripture. Doane explores concrete new ways of reading the Bible that may refresh and reroute our commitments in the midst of environmental disaster and denial of it. Pioneering inspirational work! --Rodolfo Felices Luna, Oblate School of Theology
