Theological anthropology in the Anthropocenereconsidering human agency and its limits /[electronic resource] :by Jan-Olav Henriksen. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2023. - xii, 299 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Chapter 1: Introduction: The Context and the task -- Chapter 2: The image of God -- Chapter 3: A self-centered species -- Chapter 4: Human agency and Christian faith -- Chapter 5: The spiritual-material life as embodied caring for all of creation.

The Anthropocene presents theology, and especially theological anthropology, with unprecedented challenges. There are no immediately available resources in the theological tradition that reflect directly on such experiences. Accordingly, the situation calls for contextually based theological reflection of what it means to be human under such circumstances. This book discusses the main elements in theological anthropology in light of the fundamental points: a) that theological anthropology needs to be articulated with reference to, and informed by, the concrete historical circumstances in which humanity presently finds itself, and b) that the notion of the Anthropocene can be used as a heuristic tool to describe important traits and conditions that call for a response by humanity, and which entail the need for a renewal of what a Christian self-understanding means. Jan-Olav Henriksen explores what such a response entails from the point of view of contemporary theological anthropology and discusses selected topics that can contribute to a contextually based position.
