Play in Philosophy and Social Thought

Play in Philosophy and Social Thought

Taylor & Francis

To understand play, we need a bottom-up phenomenology of play. This phenomenology highlights the paradox that it is the players who play the game, but it is also the game which makes us players. Yet what is it that plays us, when we play? Do we play the game, or does the game play us? These questions concern the relation between the playing subject and play as something larger than the individual \u2013 play as craft, play as rhythm, play between normality and otherness, even play as religion, as a sense of spiritual play between self and other.
