Description
Summary:This essay is an application of a method of inquiry described in Nathan Carlin’s 2019 book Pastoral Aesthetics. In Pastoral Aesthetics, Carlin correlates four principles of bioethics with four images of pastoral care to provide new perspectives on these principles by offering inquiry that is theologically informed, psychologically sophisticated, therapeutically oriented, and experientially grounded. In the epilogue of the book, Carlin notes that other correlations are both possible and desirable. In this essay, another correlation is presented. Specifically, the author positions the bioethics principle of nonmaleficence with Donald Capps’s pastoral image of the agent of hope by exploring Jean-Dominique Bauby’s The Diving Bell and the Butterfly (1998), a memoir about locked-in syndrome.
