520 $aThis is an accessible, comprehensive introduction to basic issues concerning the meaning and destiny of the lived body and the material universe. The term 'Body Theology' is rooted in the core mysteries of the Christian faith but has only recently become familiar. Sr Prokes traces the major reasons for enduring ambivalence and misunderstanding regarding the body, and probes the profound meaning and vocation of embodiment found in Christian revelation and tradition. It is in this light that significant questions concerning sexuality, prayer, work, creativity, suffering and death are explored. Insights from other disciplines, particularly the life sciences and physics, are incorporated to assist in the task. The result is a profound reflection on the 'vestiges' of inner Trinitarian life within creation, and a textbook for students and teachers of this exciting new field.
