I came across this great excerpt that Mark McKnight sent me a few months back and couldn’t help but share it. The word “Geosophy” is a compound of ‘ge’ (Greek for earth) and ‘sophia’ (Greek for knowledge). In Imagining the Future at Niagara Falls (1987), P. McGreevy refers to Geosophy as, “the study of the world as people conceive of and imagine it.”
