19. The Human Quest to Live in a Cosmos

  • Heather Eaton (author)
Chapter of: Living Earth Community: Multiple Ways of Being and Knowing(pp. 217–228)
Reflecting on the enduring quest of human beings to know the universe, Heather Eaton weaves together an account of the exterior (objective) and interior (subjective) facets of the cosmos. Eaton finds the unique qualities of human subjectivity in symbolic consciousness and in the worldviews, narratives, and other systems of symbols through which humans interpret and respond to their surroundings.
