Cathedral Forum: This Fragile Earth, Our Island Home | A Sociologist Ponders How We Can Learn to Share the Planet

  • The American Cathedral in Paris 23 Avenue George V Paris, IDF, 75008 France (map)

French sociologist, anthropologist and theologian Bruno Latour spent many years trying to make his rather radical thinking about ecology interesting and attractive to lay people. The U.S. elections in 2016 were an “aha” moment: he had to turn his ideas on their head! This week, parishioners Jocelyn Phelps and Anne Marie Reijnen will explore what Latour is saying to us, and what it could mean for us as we seek Christian inspiration to protect “our fragile island home”.  

Our Cathedral Forum series provides occasions to discuss topics ranging from politics to spirituality, economics, and literature, with fascinating guest speakers. The Forum seeks to help parishioners deepen their understanding of Christian faith and life, drawing on scripture, reason and tradition to understand its relevance to our lives and to our world, attentive to God's hand in the co-evolution of our world and of our church.

This is a hybrid forum; please join us in the Parish Hall or on Zoom.
