Paperback. Condizione: Gut. XVI, 214 p. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Buchrücken leicht bestoßen, Hinterdeckel leicht berieben, einige Kratzer auf Kopf- und Fußschnitt, sonst sehr guter Zustand / spine slightly scuffed, back cover slightly rubbed, some scratches on head and bottom edges, otherwise very good condition. - From the ancient Olympic games to the World Series and the World Cup, athletic achievement has always conferred social status. In this collection of essays, which were originally delivered as Fordyce W. Mitchel Memorial Lectures at the University of Missouri at Columbia, a noted authority on ancient sport discusses how Greek sport has been used to claim and enhance social status, both in antiquity and in modern times. Mark Golden explores a variety of ways in which sport provided a route to social status. In the first essay, he explains how the elite horsemen and athletes tried to ignore the important roles that jockeys, drivers, and trainers played in their victories, as well as how female owners tried to rank their equestrian achievements above those of men and other women. In the next essay, Golden looks at the varied contributions that slaves made to sport, despite its use as a marker of free Greek status. In the third essay, he evaluates the claims made by gladiators in the Greek east that they should be regarded as high-status athletes, and he asserts that gladiatorial spectacle is much more like Greek sport than modern scholars usually admit. In the final essay, Golden critiques the accepted accounts of ancient and modern Olympic history, arguing that attempts to raise the status of the modern games by stressing their links to the ancient ones are misleading. He concludes that the contemporary movement to call a truce in world conflicts during the Olympics is likewise based on misunderstandings of ancient Greek traditions. / CONTENTS Preface Some Important Dates One Helpers, Horses, and Heroes: Contests over Victory in Ancient Greece Two Slaves and Ancient Greek Sport Three Greek Games and Gladiators Four Olive-Tinted Spectacles: Myths in the Histories of the Ancient and Modern Olympics Conclusion Notes Works Cited Source Index General Index. - Wikipedia: Mark Golden (August 6, 1948 April 9, 2020) was a Canadian academic.
