Book Launch: Learning the Language of Creation

-

Location: Geddes Hall, Coffee House

Join the Institute for Social Concerns for the launch of Sister Damien Marie Savino’s book Learning the Language of Creation: Catholic Social Teaching and Integral Ecology, the fifth volume in the institute’s Enacting Catholic Social Tradition series. There will be a panel discussion with Jennifer Tank, Diogo Bolster, and Ryan Juskus, followed by a Q&A with the author.

In Learning the Language of Creation, Franciscan Sister Damien Marie Savino, a professor of civil and environmental engineering and earth sciences, frames integral ecology as a pilgrimage guided by a process of listening and learning the language of creation. In this book, she offers a new way of thinking about creation, human beings, and the relationship between them to realize the promise of integral ecology put into practice.

Co-sponsored by the Kellogg Institute for International Studies and the McGrath Institute for Church Life.
