| Zusammenfassung: | This article focuses on the need to reconnect with the Earth, not in an abstract sense, but in a real one, to lay the foundations that will allow us to achieve a deep understanding of the position that man occupies in the cosmos and, consequently, bring to light what really defines the human community. Likewise, it seeks to demonstrate, through the interpretation of texts by Hildegard of Bingen, Wendell Berry, and Maximus the Confessor, that it is not possible, without falling into error, to conceive humanity, the community, and the Church as separate realities from the Earth and the rest of Creation. I also maintain that only from a paradigm rooted in the Earth, with an agrarian and nonindustrial mentality, it is possible to rediscover the cosmic character of the Church in the connection between the cosmic and liturgical cycles. |
