Description
Theology, Fantasy, and the Imagination is an edited collection at the intersection of theology, religion, and philosophy and fantasy literature and table-top games.
The volume begins with an invocation of the “old magic†of pre-modern theology and follows with analyses of classical Christian fantasy.
The second section articulates a “post-Christian†turn in fantasy since the late twentieth century, arguing how fantasy can serve to re-enchant the imagination in ways that moves beyond traditional Christianity.
The last section on fantasy at play explores how religion is at play in Dungeons and Dragons and in Magic: the Gathering.
