This book places the phenomenon of sports and games in its
philological, archeological, and art historical context, and
examines its connections to cultural and social history. The
temporal scope extends from Tacitus' mention of dice games to
courtly falconry and includes the culture of games among 17th
century Swedish miners. The thematic spectrum includes among others
dice and board games and the chivalrous septem probitates (seven
skills).
