On the 25th anniversary of publication of Thomas Berry's The Great Work, a pioneer in ecological theology offers insights not only to Berry's work but to the vital work before all of us.
While collective attention to and action for ecological justice has gained momentum in recent years it has been accompanied by a rise in despair, gloom, and an insidious fatalism in the face of multi-national intransigence.
Earth's Journey into Hope considers the impact of Berry's landmark text amid the dire immediacy of present ecological crises. With Mary Evelyn Tucker and John Grim, Brian Edward Brown reflects on where we have been to energize today's movements for ecological well-being.
For all readers concerned with this dilemma Earth's Journey into Hope provides a way forward, encouraging us to remember our cosmic past and to step into our planetary future with the spiritual energy of Thomas Berry.
Brian Edward Brown, an undergraduate and graduate student of Thomas Berry at Fordham, earned his doctorate in History of Religions. He is the co-founder of The Thomas Berry Forum for Ecological Dialogue at Iona University, NY where he has taught for decades in religious studies. He also holds a juris doctor, focusing on Earth jurisprudence in both Berry's work and in Indigenous American tribal traditions.
Mary Evelyn Tucker and John Grim are co-editors of the Ecology and Justice Series.
