I wanted to share with you the cover that Eerdmans created for my forthcoming book Theophanizing Love.
Needless to say, they did a great job; I’m quite excited about it. The cover is taken from Hildegard of Bingen’s drawing of creation, which she describes in Scivias 2.1. I give a detailed explanation of the painting in the preface to my new book. For now, enough to say that Hildegard’s panentheist metaphysic combines divine transcendence and immanence similarly to the way that the Eastern fathers used to do it—particularly Dionysius and Maximus, the two heroes of my book. There’s no anticipated date of publication yet; I’ll let you know once I know.
Yes, I think there's truth to what you're saying re. Zizioulas--though I don't know the details. You may be interested in this article: Jaroslav Skira, "The Ecological Bishop: John Zizioulas' Theology of Creation." Toronto Journal of Theology, 19, no. 2 (2003): 199–214.
I do not deal with ecological implications in my book. I'm very sympathetic, though, to Zizioulas's view of man as the priest creation.
