Book: Sport A little story
4,00 €
incl. 7% VAT plus Shipping costs
The history of sport goes far back into Greek antiquity. While the Greek poet Pindar was still able to locate sporting competition in the vicinity of the divine in his Olympic Odes, this mythical connection was ground down and trivialized in the course of the following centuries. Today, sport has become an identity-forming way of life. Sport mobilizes the masses and the values associated with it, such as fitness and beauty, have become guiding values of modern culture. Mario Leis traces the essential, the most exciting stages in the development of the fascination of sport from antiquity to the present day.
