The Routledge Handbook of Religion and Animal Ethics de Andrew Linzey

The Routledge Handbook of Religion and Animal Ethics: Routledge Handbooks in Religion

Editat de Andrew Linzey, Clair Linzey
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 dec 2020
The ethical treatment of non-human animals is an increasingly significant issue, directly affecting how people share the planet with other creatures and visualize themselves within the natural world. The Routledge Handbook of Religion and Animal Ethics is a key reference source in this area, looking specifically at the role religion plays in the formation of ethics around these concerns.




Featuring thirty-five chapters by a team of international contributors, the handbook is divided into two parts. The first gives an overview of fifteen of the major world religions’ attitudes towards animal ethics and protection. The second features five sections addressing the following topics:









  • Human Interaction with Animals







  • Killing and Exploitation







  • Religious and Secular Law







  • Evil and Theodicy







  • Souls and Afterlife






This handbook demonstrates that religious traditions, despite often being anthropocentric, do have much to offer to those seeking a framework for a more enlightened relationship between humans and non-human animals. As such, The Routledge Handbook of Religion and Animal Ethics is essential reading for students and researchers in religious studies, theology, and animal ethics as well as those studying the philosophy of religion and ethics more generally.

Recenzii

"This handbook demonstrates that religious tradi-tions, despite often being anthropocentric, do have much to offer to those seeking a frame-work for a more enlightened relationship between humans and non-human animals."
- Interpretation: A Journal of Bible and Theology
"This collection of The Routledge Handbook of Religion and Animal Ethics with 35 original chapters and a masterful introduction is a terrific contribution to a vital dimension of religious and environmental ethics. It also enriches the fields of religious studies, theology, and philosophy of religion.
[...]This handbook entertains secular atheism as well as religious atheism or non-theism (e.g., Buddhism), but its scope in terms of religious traditions fills a gap in the literature and offers to students and scholars a rich opportunity to expand their horizons."

-Charles Taliaferro, Saint Olaf College, Religious Studies Review
