Ecotheology and Love - The Converging Poetics of Sohrab Sepehri and James Baldwin

Ecotheology and Love examines ecotheology and ecopoetics in the work of Sohrab Sepehri, a twentieth-century Rumi and a pillar of the religion of love, and American novelist James Baldwin. Davary shows how these artists' deep understanding of spiritual traditions of the world give their work immediacy for our time.
