Short description of contents:

To the Italian Renaissance belongs in effect a ludic dimension that, while it presents clear European parallels, does not lack specificity. It is a set of practices accompanied by moments of theoretical reflection of notable respite with implications that range from ethics to aes- thetics. In the anthropological system of the era, it invests both the physical and psychic aspects of human beings: in the culture of play, therefore, the fields of knowledge pertaining to the body and to the mind were implicated, from the medical level onwards.
