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. . 001453560 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on January 20, 2023). 001453560 650_0 $$aTheological anthropology. 001453560 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001453560 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z3031210573$$z9783031210570$$w(OCoLC)1347362273 001453560 852__ $$bebk 001453560 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-21058-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001453560 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1453560$$pGLOBAL_SET 001453560 980__ $$aBIB 001453560 980__ $$aEBOOK 001453560 982__ $$aEbook 001453560 983__ $$aOnline 001453560 994__ $$a92$$bISE
