Contributors to this special issue argue that, while Anglican theologian Rowan Williams’s The Tragic Imagination (2016) maintains the compatibility of tragedy and Christianity, it neglects, without comment, the entire Middle Ages. Investigating the sources and consequences of this missing middle of Williams' book, the authors explore the fortunes of tragedy as a genre.
