Description: This interdisciplinary volume arises out of the 2024 conference of the European Society for the Study of Science and Theology, held in Split, Croatia. Building on work in literature and textual studies, this book offers a series of provocations that deepen our understanding of narrative, theology, and science. A diverse array of narrative forms are examined, from science fiction (including science fiction cinema and AI narratives), to poetry, opera libretti, parables, and images in popular science magazines. These are used to develop new insights for theological, philosophical, scientific, and ethical inquiry, including questions about knowledge, humanness, flourishing, and purpose. The material gathered here will be of substantial value to those interested in science and religion, religious studies, philosophy, literature, art, and theology.
