Book Sports and Physical Exercise in Early Modern Culture

Download or read book Sports and Physical Exercise in Early Modern Culture written by Rebekka von Mallinckrodt and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is often assumed that a recognisably modern sporting culture did not emerge until the eighteenth century. The plethora of physical training and games that existed before 1700 tend to fall victim to rigid historical boundaries drawn between "modern" and "pre-modern" sports, which are concerned primarily with levels of regulation, organization and competitiveness. Adopting a much broader and culturally based approach, the essays in this collection offer an alternative view of sport in the early modern period. Taking into account a variety of competitive as well as non-competitive forms of sport, physical training and games, the collection situates these types of activities as institutions in their own right within the socio-cultural context of early-modern Europe. Treating the period not only as a precursor of modern developments, but as an independent and formative era, the essays engage with overlooked topics and sources such as court records, self-narratives, and visual materials, and with contemporary discussions about space, gender and postcolonial studies. By allowing for this increased contextualization of sport, the collection is able to integrate it into more general historical questions and approaches. The volume underlines how developments in early modern sport influenced later developments, whilst at the same time being thoroughly shaped by contemporary notions of the body, status and honour. These notions influenced not only the contemporary sporting fashion but the adoption of sports in elite education, the use of sports facilities, training methods and modes of competition, thus offering a more integrated idea of the place of sport in early modern society.

Book The Sports and Pastimes of American Boys

Download or read book The Sports and Pastimes of American Boys written by Henry Chadwick and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-13 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sports and Pastimes of American Boys: A Guide and Text-Book of Games of the Play-Ground, the Parlor, and the Field, Adapted Especially for American Youth The experience of the last half century of our American progress in refined civilization has conclusively shown that physical culture must keep pace with mental education, if the latter is to be carried to the point of perfection. There are, of course, extremes in this respect as in everything else; and just as we Americans, up to within the past twenty-five years, cultivated our minds at the expense of our bodies, just so are our English cousins of the present day giving too much of their attention to physical culture, to the neglect of that of the mind. To read such influential sporting journals as The Field; Land and Water and weekly papers of that class in England now not to mention Belts Life and kindred journals one might very reasonably think that the English leisure classes had little else to do or to think of than sports and pastimes. But this is as much the extreme in one way as it has been, since the early days of the Republic, with us the other way. The happy medium, however, unquestionably recognizes out-door recreation as going hand in hand with mental culture. Morally, too, the aspect of the case is one which gives encouragement to national pastimes as essential to the right and proper growth of our young people. The inhabitants of our large American cities have, up to within a late period, lacked a healthy physique. Their mental powers have drawn too heavily on the nervous forces of their bodies and the result has been that the middle period of life has seen thousands carried to the grave, who, with proper attention to physical exercise and recreation in youth and early manhood, would have reached a good old age, ere the sere and yellow leaf of time had made itself apparent. But it is useless further to sermonize on the subject. Experience has taught us as a people that our old-time system of all work and no play, of overtaxing the mind at the expense of a neglected physique, is a very bad policy, and very wisely and characteristically we are gaining yearly in wisdom in this respect; and hence the increased and growing popularity of out-door sports for our boys and young men, and for physical exercise for the fair sex as well, in the large cities and towns of the American Continent.

Download or read book The Sports and Pastimes of American Boys written by Henry Chadwick and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sports and Pastimes of American Boys: A Guide and d104-Book of Games of the Play-Ground, the Parlor, and the Field, Adapted Especially for American Youth OW that the spirit of the age favors the plan of a judicious combination of physical recreation with mental culture, it is timely to prepare a text-book of sports and pastimes for boys, which will best tend to promote this system of paying due attention to physical as well as mental education. An old writer says, Let me make the songs of a people, and I care not who makes their laws. This rule is as applicable to the structure of the sports of a people as it is to the com position of their songs. The pastimes of boys of all nations partake largely of the peculiar character of the people whose youth engage in them. The boys of a war like nation find their chief recreation in sports in which feats of brutal courage, and of endurance of fatigue and pain, are marked characteristics. On the other hand, the youths of a peaceful people enjoy those pastimes best which most com pare in their character with the national life of their progenitors. Differences in climate necessarily have their relation to the character of national sports but it is more in the essential character of the people themselves that their national pastimes differ, and this is especially noticeable in the receative sports of boys. It is in this respect that the games of American boyhood are different, as a rule, from those of English youths. Of course, there is a certain degree of similarity in most of them, arising from their English origin but there is scarcely an imported game that is at all open to improvement, which has not of late years been essentially Americanized witness the evolution of our manly national game of base-ball from the old English schoolboy game of Rounders.
