瓦尔堡的游戏史书单：中世纪文艺复兴桌游

我的博士外审专家是瓦尔堡研究院（Warburg Institute）的Charles Burnett教授，前一段时间我拜托他帮了个忙，而我这几天又因为研究原因整天泡在瓦尔堡图书馆里。如此频繁往来，每天都会接触到他们的藏书。这几天图书馆一层展示了一系列欧洲游戏史的书籍，主要聚焦于中世纪文艺复兴时期的桌游。在此我把其中的一些书籍整理了一下，分享给大家：

瓦尔堡研究所与图书馆位于大英博物馆与UCL校园的中间，毗邻SOAS。这里有极为丰富的西方艺术与文化史藏书，是这一领域的精神堡垒，著名艺术史家贡布里希（E. H. Gombrich，1909–2001）就曾任教于此。我有幸在此短暂学习过，受益良多。
