An innovative volume of 15 interdisciplinary essays at the nexus of material culture, performance studies, and game theory. "Plaything" is understood as both an object and a person, and play, in the early modern world, is treated not merely as a pastime, a leisurely pursuit, but as a pivotal part of daily life, a strategic psychosocial endeavor.
