Abstract

The article explores humanity's historical and philosophical separation from nature, rooted in the Genesis creation myth and its interpretation. Topics discussed include the theological basis for man's dominion over nature, its reflection in literary works like Milton's Paradise Lost, and the cultural implications of this worldview on environmental and societal crises.
