Readings from the perspective of earth
Habel, Norman C.
Readings from the perspective of earth - Cleveland : Pilgrim Press ; Sheffield : Sheffield Academic, 2000. - 297
This volume introduces the hermeneutical approach and ecojustice principles developed by the Earth Bible project team. Following this approach, biblical scholars illustrate how a reading of the biblical text from the perspective of Earth yields fresh insights. Though the text may seem anthropocentric, these studies are able to retrieve evidence of the living voice and intrinsic value of Earth. It is an approach that can be harmonized with other recognized critical approaches to the Bible, from historical criticism to ecofeminist criticism. The texts chosen are from many parts of the Bible (Ps)
Ecology -- Religious aspects,
. BIBLES -- General. Bible -- Criticism
