Book excerpt: Missourians spend their time away from work in a variety of ways¿video and computer gaming, attending sporting events and movies, exercising, or listening to music. The articles in Filling Leisure Hours: Essays from the Missouri Historical Review, 1906-2006 discuss several pastimes enjoyed by Missourians during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Editor Alan Havig, professor emeritus of history at Stephens College, Columbia, Missouri, has selected essays that describe popular arts and entertainments rather than high culture amusements. Circus tours instead of opera performances and dance halls rather than ballet stages engage the writers of these thirteen selections.Through articles published between 1920 and 2006, Havig traces leisure time pursuits of rural residents and city dwellers. From antebellum circuses to theatrical productions staged by small-town organizations in the 1950s, the writers chronicled amusements that attracted Missourians ¿after the tasks of life are done.¿ In Springfield in the early 1910s, boxing gained prominence during the search for the ¿great white hope.¿ Kansas Citians danced, roller-skated, and attended amusement parks and movies during the same time period. Many of the state¿s residents heard the distinctive voice and vocabulary of Dizzy Dean as he called major league baseball games.The editor and writers also examine a ¿problem¿ associated with leisure¿oversight and censorship by governments and organizations that feared certain activities would have a negative impact on the participants or the larger society. Filling Leisure Hours provides a new lens for examining the role of popular arts and amusements in Missouri.

Book excerpt: This volume addresses the rich and varied thoughts, concepts, approaches and leisure practices in sixteen countries of three continents---Australia, Asia and Africa. The chapters showcase the diversity in the forms and ways in which the idea and practice of leisure have developed across space and time. However, the common thread through the chapters is that concepts and practices of leisure are found all over the world, from pre-historic settlements to the present-day consumer societies. Seemingly, being at leisure is a capacity of the human species present at birth and which develops in a variety of individual and societal contexts. Even in situations where leisure gets little official recognition as being an aspect of life---such as under colonial rule or in extremely work-centric societies---it needs to be contextually understood. This is a welcome addition to the literature on leisure studies from a global and comparative perspective.
