Abstract

Games and play are universal attributes of man - present to ourknowledge at all times and all places inhabited by man. This aspectof man's behavior, however, has not caught the attention of serioussocial thinkers until quite recently. Johan Huizinga, rector of the Universityof Leyden, in his work Homo Ludens - (Man the Player) published in 1938, analyzed the functions and structure of play as it relates to culture.
