Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Voici un essai qui tente de retracer la genèse de la notion de compétition en Grèce ancienne qui ne naît pas, loin s'en faut, en 776 avant J.-C. avec les premiers Jeux Olympiques que la tradition a retenus, mais qui participe plutôt d'un processus beaucoup plus profond, culturel, économique, religieux, sémantique... qui l'englobe et le dépasse. A ce titre, nous sommes les héritiers de ces pionniers et le sport que nous pratiquons aujourd'hui procède des mêmes mécanismes que ceux que l'on a mis en lumière au cours de ce travail. Aussi, la lecture de cet ouvrage sera-t-elle fructueuse pour le professionnel du domaine du sport, qu'il soit enseignant d'éducation physique, entraîneur ou chercheur, car elle le guidera, à n'en pas douter, au sein d'une analyse réflexive sur ses propres pratiques. Le philosophe, le sociologue, l'historien trouveront sûrement aussi dans ces pages matière à enseignements. Le sport, dans une telle perspective, représente, selon le concept des historiens de l'Ecole des Annales, un " fait total " qui transcende, soyons-en certains, toutes les déterminations régionales et particulières au sein desquelles on a trop souvent voulu l'enfermer.

Download or read book Sport in the Greek and Roman Worlds written by Thomas Francis Scanlon and published by Oxford Readings in Classical S. This book was released on 2014 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the identity of Greek athletes and the place of Greek games in the Roman era to forms, functions, and venues of Roman spectacles, this second volume of Sport in the Greek and Roman Worlds contains eleven articles and chapters of enduring importance to the study of ancient Greek and Roman sport, a field located at a crucial intersection of social history, archaeology, literature, and other aspects of those cultures. The studies have been updated with addenda by the original authors, and four of the articles that were originally published in German have been translated into English here for the first time. The studies, selected for breadth and importance of historical topics, include: the economics, status, gender, and training of ancient athletes; the place of Greek athletes in the Roman era; the evolution of Roman games from Etruscan customs and of the Roman arena from earlier traditions; the monetary prices of gladiators; the role of animal games in Rome; and the Roman team sport of chariot racing. A companion first volume complements this one with studies on Greek sport in its epic, heroic, and Bronze Age origins; the ancient Olympics in its relation to religion, politics, and diversity of competitors; Greek events in track and field and equestrian events. The articles in both volumes offer an excellent starting point to inspire newcomers to the study of ancient sport, and to give students and scholars an informative set of models for present knowledge and future research.

Download or read book Sport and Society in Ancient Greece written by Mark Golden and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1998-09-10 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sport and Society in Ancient Greece provides a concise and readable introduction to ancient Greek sport. It covers such topics as the links between sport, religion and warfare, the origins and history of the Olympic games, and the spirit of competition among the Greeks. Its main focus, however, is on Greek sport as an arena for the creation and expression of difference among individuals and groups. Sport not only identified winners and losers. It also drew boundaries between groups (Greeks and barbarians, boys and men, males and females) and offered a field for debate on the relative worth of athletic and equestrian competition. The book includes guides to the ancient evidence and to modern scholarship on the subject.

Download or read book Sport in the Cultures of the Ancient World written by Zinon Papakonstantinou and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sport has been practised in the Greco-Roman world at least since the second millennium BC. It was socially integrated and was practised in the context of ceremonial performances, physical education and established local and international competitions including, most famously, the Olympic Games. In recent years, the continuous re-assessment of old and new evidence in conjunction with the development of new methodological perspectives have created the need for a fresh examination of central aspects of ancient sport in a single volume. This book fills that gap in ancient sport scholarship. When did the ancient Olympics begin? How is sport depicted in the work of the fifth-century historian Herodotus? What was the association between sport and war in fifth- and fourth-century BC Athens? What were the social and political implications of the practice of Greek-style sport in third-century BC Ptolemaic Egypt? How were Roman gladiatorial shows perceived and transformed in the Greek-speaking east? And what were the conditions of sport participation by boys and girls in ancient Rome? These are some of the questions that this book, written by an international cast of distinguished scholars on ancient sport, attempts to answer. Covering a wide chronological and geographical scope (ancient Mediterranean from the early first millennium BC to fourth century AD), individual articles re-examine old and new evidence, and offer stimulating, original interpretations of key aspects of ancient sport in its political, military, cultural, social, ceremonial and ideological setting. This book was previously published as a special issue of the International Journal of the History of Sport.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les jeux Olympiques nous viennent de la Grèce antique. Leur prestige était tel qu'ils servirent de modèle à de nombreux concours de l'époque et inspirèrent les compétitions sportives internationales que l'on connaît aujourd'hui. Organisés à l'intention d'athlètes alliant la force, la vitesse, l'endurance et l'adresse, les jeux en Grèce proposaient un programme très varié : la course, le lancer de disque ou de javelot, le saut en longueur, la lutte, et bien d'autres épreuves que vous retrouverez dans cet ouvrage. Y sont également évoqués les mythes relatifs à l'origine des jeux, le règlement des épreuves, leur déroulement et, enfin, les victoires et récompenses décernées au vainqueur. Le lecteur est invité à se promener dans les collections grecques du musée et à admirer des représentations peintes ou sculptées de ces athlètes s'illustrant dans diverses disciplines ou se préparant à la compétition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this study, James R. Harrison compares the modern cult of celebrity to the quest for glory in late republican and early imperial society.
