Theological Writing and The Power of Place

Particular places and our experiences in and with them inform and give shape to our intellectual musings, interests, projects, and compositions. This lecture highlights the affective agency of the physical, geographical places we inhabit and makes a case for why we who study and create theology should count them among the influences on our understandings of thought, knowledge, and belief.
