The Tragic Plane


Overview

What constitutes tragedy? This study examines some of the world's greatest tragic dramas and tries to discover what elements produce a tragic effect. Mason here contends that the effect cannot be properly described in the terms used by philosophers, psychologists, or theologians: tragedy occurs on its own plane on which the characters in the plays are seen at once as agents and pasive sufferers in an action where the human and the divine come together in a unique way to produce the tragic act.
