Cities, Climate Change and Christianity: Religion and Sustainable Urbanism
The Ann O’Hara Graff Memorial Lecture Series was inaugurated in 1996 in memory of Ann O’Hara Graff and her contributions to theology, the church and the academy. The lectureship calls upon theologians who--like O'Hara Graff--creatively hold together scholarship and experience, bring the insights of the academy into dialogue with the church and work out of liberationist feminist perspectives. The guest speaker for the 2009 lecture is Sally McFague, Distinguished Theologian in Residence at the Vancouver School of Theology, Vancouver, BC, Canada.
Widely recognized as one of North America’s preeminent feminist theologians and eco-theologians, McFague’s books are published in Danish, Spanish, Swedish, Korean, and Dutch. Currently serving as Distinguished Theologian in Residence at Vancouver School of Theology, Dr. McFague is also Carpenter Professor of Theology Emerita, Vanderbilt University. Her most recent work is A New Climate for Theology: God, the World, and Global Warming.
Sponsored by the Theology and Religious Studies Department at Seattle University.
