Scandinavian Creation Theology and the Question of Home

Bodies Inhabiting the World: Scandinavian Creation Theology and the Question of Home offers a multidimensional investigation of how houses, bodies, communities and the whole universe may be conceived and refigured as places where we belongwhere we are at home in God’s creation. In this way, revisiting the tradition of Scandinavian creation theology provides profound resources to make theological affirmations of God’s omnipresence in the human condition we all share. The emergence here of an exciting new theological program can be recognizedbeyond the limitations of other contemporary agendas cul-de-sacs, blind spots and diffidence.What it is to have a home is a universal question closely connected to what it means to be human and to live a good, flourishing, life. But the negative experiences of homelessness, broken homes, statelessness and alienation always lurk in the background of the universal quest to find ones home in the world. This book contains fourteen essays exploring the dynamics of the human experience of finding, losing and finding again a home.
