  • - Environmental Philosophy and the Holy Beauty of the Visible
    von Bruce V. Foltz
    49,00 - 136,00 €

    Both philosophical and theological texts of antiquity argued that a "noetic" or contemplative understanding of nature is higher than the discursive rationality oriented toward domination and control. Studying poets, mystics, and nature writers, this book argues that restoring a sacred view of nature is urgently needed in Western thought.

  • - Merleau-Ponty, Animals, and Language
    von Louise Westling

    This book puts Merleau-Ponty's philosophy into dialogue with literature, evolutionary biology, and animal studies to argue for evolutionary continuity between human cultural and linguistic behaviors and the semiotic activities of other animals. It restores our species to its place within the co-evolved animal community now threatened by environmental change.

  • - Human Responsibility in an Endangered World
    von Bruce Ellis Benson & Norman Wirzba
    111,00 €

  • von Jozef Keulartz
    42,00 €

    Environmental aesthetics crosses several commonly recognized divides: between analytic and continental philosophy, Eastern and Western traditions, universalizing and historicizing approaches, and theoretical and practical concerns. This volume sets out to show how these,perspectives can be brought into conversation with one another.The first part surveys the development of the field and discusses some important future directions. The second part explains how widening the scope of environmental aesthetics demands a continual rethinking of the relationship between aesthetics and other fields. How does environmental aesthetics relate to ethics? Does aesthetic appreciation of the environment entail an attitude of respect? What is the relationship between the theory and practice? The third part is devoted to the relationship between the aesthetics of nature and the aesthetics of art. Can art help "e;save the Earth"e;? The final part illustrates the emergence of practical applications from theoretical studies by focusing on concrete case studies.

  • - Notes toward an Other Beginning
    von David Wood
    39,00 - 111,00 €

    Habit rules our lives. While many of our individual habits seem perfectly reasonable, when aggregated together they spell ecological disaster. Beyond consumerism, other ways of living are clearly possible. Reoccupy Earth shows how an approach to philosophy attuned to our ecological existence can suspend the taken-for-granted and open up alternative forms of earthly dwelling.

  • - The Image of God for the Anthropocene
    von Adam Pryor
    41,00 - 122,00 €

    Living with Tiny Aliens imagines in theological terms how an individuals' meaningful existence persists within a cosmos pregnant with living-possibilities. In doing so, it works to articulate an astrobiological humanities.
