Play is a vital component of the social life and well-being of both children and adults. This book examines the concept of play and considers a variety of the related philosophical issues. It also includes meta-analyses from a range of philosophers and theorists, as well as an exploration of some key applied ethical considerations. The main objective of The Philosophy of Play is to provide a richer understanding of the concept and nature of play and its relation to human life and value, and to build disciplinary and paradigmatic bridges between scholars of philosophy and scholars of play. Including specific chapters dedicated to children and play, and exploring the work of key thinkers such as Plato, Sartre, Wittgenstein, Gadamer, Deleuze and Nietzsche, this book is invaluable reading for any advanced student, researcher or practitioner with an interest in education, playwork, leisure studies, applied ethics or the philosophy of sport.

Philosophical Perspectives on Play builds on the disciplinary and paradigmatic bridges constructed between the study of philosophy and play in The Philosophy of Play (Routledge, 2013) to develop a richer understanding of the concept and nature of play and its relation to human life and value. Made up of contributions from leading international thinkers and inviting readers to explore the presumptions often attached to play and playfulness, the book considers ways that play in ‘virtual’ and ‘real’ worlds can inform understandings of each, critiquing established norms and encouraging scepticism about the practice and experience of play. Organised around four central themes -- play(ing) at the limits, aesthetics, metaphysics/ontology and ethics -- the book extends and challenges notions of play by drawing on issues emerging in sport, gaming, literature, space and art, with specific attention paid to disruption and danger. It is intended to provide scholars and practitioners working in the spheres of play, education, games, sport and related subjects with a deeper understanding of philosophical thought and to open dialogue across these disciplines.

It is now widely acknowledged that play is central to our lives. As a phenomenon, play poses important questions of reality, subjectivity, competition, inclusion and exclusion. This international collection is the third in a series of books (including The Philosophy of Play and Philosophical Perspectives on Play) that aims to build paradigmatic bridges between scholars of philosophy and scholars of play. Divided into four sections (Play as Life, Play as Games, Play as Art and Play as Politics), this book sheds new light on the significance of play for both children and adults in a variety of cultural settings. Its chapters encompass a range of philosophical areas of enquiry such as metaphysics, aesthetics and ethics, and the spectrum of topics explored includes games, jokes, sport and our social relationship with the Internet. With contributions from established and emerging scholars from around the world, The Philosophy of Play as Life is fascinating reading for all those with an interest in playwork, the ethics and philosophy of sport, childhood studies or the philosophy of education.

Das Spielen zählt zu den ältesten Kulturphänomenen der Menschheit, gleiches gilt für das Erzählen. Eine ebenso ungewöhnliche wie innovative Verbindung von Spielen und Erzählen bietet das Fantasy-Rollenspiel, eine Freizeitbeschäftigung, in der sowohl simulative als auch narrative Elemente einen zentralen Platz einnehmen. Diese Studie bietet eine umfassende Darstellung von Geschichte, Gestalt und Praxis des Fantasy-Rollenspiels. Mit Hilfe interdisziplinärer literatur- und spieltheoretischer Methoden wird der Frage nachgegangen, inwiefern sich die unterschiedlichen Aspekte des Rollenspiels voneinander abgrenzen bzw. als Einzelelemente beschreiben lassen. Geboten wird ein Überblick über die Entstehung und Fortentwicklung einer neuen literarischen Gattung im Spannungsfeld zwischen Spielen und Erzählen. Eine Betrachtung unter erzähltheoretischen Gesichtspunkten zeigt, dass Rollenspiele nicht allein Spiele sind, sondern auch ein erzählerisches Potential von hohem Stellenwert besitzen. Von besonderem Interesse ist zudem die Verbindung von Simulation und Narration, die in dieser Form bei keiner anderen literarischen Gattung zu finden ist. Eine vergleichende Untersuchung mehrerer verbreiteter Rollenspiel-Systeme erlaubt Aufschluss über Wesen und Charakter der Gattung sowohl aus narratologischer als auch aus ludologischer Perspektive.
