Bron Taylor

B. Taylor

Comments about recent presentations:

"Bron Taylor bridges intellectual issues and public concerns with a style that is at once provocative and welcoming. He refuses to let his ideas languish in the halls of academia. His message is about radical changes in the world we know and he is immensely capable of reaching a broad audience. Taylor writes and speaks about issues that should be front and center for all of us--the fate or our planet and the role of religion in causing and responding to the environmental struggles we face."

"Bron Taylor is certainly a leader in the field of environmentalism and religion. Both his published work and his speaking engagements are informed with the kind of critical, intellectual depth necessary for today's pressing discussions about environmental and social issues. Being that his work is often informed by field experience and lived experience, it ultimately represents the important merging of theory and practice that we also need as we move forward on key issues.”

"Few if any have done as much as Bron Taylor to place the study of environmental movements and spirituality on the academic map; none have done so with such an infectious thrill of surfing waves both scholarly and oceanic.”

"Bron Taylor is an outstanding presenter. He uses sights, sounds, audience participation, and the art of story telling to reveal the depth of content of his talks. Our students walked away believing it was the best out of class experience that they had all year. Taylor remained after the talk and engaged in conversation with students for hours. His enthusiasm is quite infectious.”

"Professor Taylor is one of the acknowledged masters of the emerging field of Religion and Ecology. His research has been a major factor in the establishment of this area as one of critical importance to the Academy as well as the general public. Because of Bron Taylor's singular work, today scholars, worldwide, understand the vital relationship between human concepts of the sacred and the natural world. Besides his foundational research, Bron is also an outstanding lecturer and facilitator of group learning. His presentations are dynamic, engaged and engaging, smart, informed, never bothered and always cool. He is a rare and powerful presence. We are lucky he is in the world with us at this time."
