Description
Summary:This essay moves the theme of space, place and surrounding from the margins to the centre of Religious Studies/Theology and Environmental Science. After a survey of diverse concepts of space in science, religion and environmentalism, which challenge scholars to explore the ‘trialectics’ of religion at a deeper level, it proceeds to a detailed presentation and discussion of three elaborated approaches in phenomenology, aesth/ethics and anthropology. After having drawn together the three and related them to the study of religion and environment, the third section proposes a reformulation of the agenda of science with regard to nature, religion and Europe. In conclusion, a pneumatological miniature will suggest a direction for further Christian reflection concerning the salvation of Creation, in synergy with the Spirit of Space.
