Product details

The seventh and final volume of the "Huizinga Writings" series presents a new translation of the famous "Homo Ludens" from 1938, which has significantly influenced the understanding of play ever since. The work defines play as a constitutive element of culture and explores its forms in language, law, war, science, philosophy, sports, and art through examples from numerous disciplines. This important new translation is complemented by the long-overdue translation of Huizinga's inaugural address "On the Boundaries of Play and Seriousness in Culture" from 1933, which has previously only been available in German as a self-translation.
