1This book took shape during the research project Locus Ludi. The Cultural Fabric of Play and Games in Classical Antiquity (ERCAdG #741520), funded for five years by the European Research Council, to whom I am first and foremost deeply grateful for this exceptional support.
2Thanks to all the members of the project team for their joyful and fruitful exchanges: Eftychia Alevizou, Hanna Ammar, Marie-Lys Arnette, Alexandra Attia, Barbara Carè, Oksana Ruchynska, Salvatore Costanza, Thomas Daniaux, Alessandro Pace, Ulrich Schädler, Marco Vespa. I would also like to thank a circle of friends from all walks of life for their proofreading and expert advice: Michel Casevitz, Despina Chatzivasiliou, Sophie Laribi-Glaudel, Arnaud Macé, Vinciane Pirenne-Delforge, Gabriella Pironti, Victoria Sabetai, Annie Verbanck-Piérard, and especially Nikolina Kei and Marie-Christine Villanueva Puig for the Greek images, and Roberte Hamayon and Thierry Wendling for their fundamental contribution to the anthropology of play.
3These ideas were regularly explored and challenged in courses, colloquia, and seminars, notably ‘Anthropology and Images’ at the ANHIMA centre in Paris, a school of visual studies with François Lissarrague, who passed away so prematurely. I was also welcomed to other seminars in Paris by Vincent Azoulay, Anne Boissière, Cecilia d’Ercole, Gabriella Pironti, Francesca Prescendi and Violaine Sébillotte Cuchet, in Besançon by Arnaud Macé, in Caen by Typhaine Haziza, with whom we have also organised two colloquia, in Milan ‘la Statale’ by Claudia Lambrugo and the LALLACT group, in Oxford by Maria Stamatopoulou, in Toulouse by Corinne Bonnet (ERC MAP), and in Warsaw by Katarzyna Marciniak (ERC Our Mythical Childhood).
4I would also like to thank the colleagues and friends who have gradually built up an extended play community by joining in our scientific meetings, whether face-to-face, hybrid or remotely via our weekly webinar, despite the pandemic keeping us apart. The list would be very long, and I would like to thank in particular my co-authors and co-editors who have not yet been mentioned, David Bouvier, Jérôme Gavin, Nicolas Mathieu, as well as specialists in childhood and play, Christian Laes for the Roman world, Michel Manson for modern France, Jean-Pierre Rossie for the Moroccan High Atlas, and those whose research projects have overlapped and enriched Locus Ludi, Cameron Brown, Maastricht (ERC Ludeme) and Clare Rowan, Warwick (ERC Token Communities).
5I would also like to extend my warmest thanks to all the people and institutions that facilitated the study of the archaeological material and sent the photographs that made it possible to write a ‘history in images’ in this book. I am very grateful for the scientific exchanges that accompanied the photographs with Maria Chidiroglou, Despina Ignatiadou (Athens, National Museum), Leonidas Bournias, Jutta Stroszeck (Athens, Kerameikos Museum), Esau Dozio (Basel, Antikenmuseum und Sammlung Ludwig), Agnes Schwarzmaier (Berlin, Antikensammlungen), Elisabetta Govi (Bologna), Natacha Massar (Brussels, Musées Royaux d’Art et d’Histoire), Anastasia Christophilopoulou, Emma Darbyshire (Cambridge, Fitzwilliam Museum), Stine Schierup (Copenhagen, National Museum), Georg Gerleigner (Erlangen, Friedrich-Alexander-Universität), Mario Iozzo (Florence, Museo Archeologico Nazionale), Béatrice Blandin (Geneva, Musée d’art et d’histoire), Nikolaus Dietrich (Heidelberg, Antikensammlung der Universität), Magdalene Söldner, Manuel Fleckner (Kiel, Antikensammlung), Anna Maria Fedeli (Milan, Sambon collection, Soprintendenza Archeologia Belle Arti e Paesaggio), Anna Provenzali (Milan, Civico Museo Archeologico), Astrid Fendt (Munich, Antikensammlungen), Joan Mertens, Maya Muratov (New York, Metropolitan Museum of Art), Louise Detrez (Paris, Cabinet des Médailles), Anne Coulié (Paris, Musée du Louvre), Michael Padgett, Carolyn M. Laferrière (Princeton University Art Museum), Valentino Nizzo (Rome, Museo Nazionale Etrusco di Villa Giulia), Branko van Open (Tampa Museum of Art), Jochen Griesbach (Würzburg, Martin von Wagner Museum).
6I would also like to thank my students, doctoral students, and young researchers, Elodie Bauer, Vilma Losyte, Aloysia Moretti, Fabio Spadini, Katerina Troullinou, for sharing the progress of their research, Federica Grossi for her drawings. Special thanks go to Dr. Alexandre Mitchell (Expressum.eu) for translating this volume, for the exchange of ideas since the beginning of the project, the many scientific translations and communication work that have also contributed to disseminate Locus Ludi to the wider scientific community.
7Finally, thanks to Bjorn Olav Dozo for helping to create the Jeu/Play/ Spiel series, where this book is published, to Isabelle Jeanmart for her attentive editorial supervision and layout of the manuscript, to Samuel Sottas for his careful editing of the images and text, and to Aaricia Chèvre for her help in preparing the manuscript.
