Om denne bog
Greening the Children of God uncovers the theological roots of the growing ethical imperative to reconnect children to their natural environment. In their different traditions, theologians, environmental educators and psychologists all affirm that knowing their place in the natural environment helps a child develop an intersubjective ''ecological'' identity that nurtures virtues of mutuality and care. During the Scientific Revolution this ethical harmony was threatened as science and moral theology began to adopt different epistemological methods, something the Anglican priest and poet Thomas Traherne was all too aware of. Traherne insisted that education should promote a child''s attention to the moral dimensions woven into ''the tapestry of creation'', and professed that play, wonder, and a sensory relationship to diverse creatures play a pedagogical role in a child''s moral formation. Greening the Children of God establishes the contemporary significance of Traherne''s moral theory in conversation with child psychologists, educators, philosophers, and theologians who know that cultivating a place-based relationship to the local ecology helps children perceive creation''s deep mutuality and develop a moral identity in the image of a caring Creator.
