The Olympic Games
Published by Viking Adult, 1976
Seller: Library House Internet Sales, Grand Rapids, OH, U.S.A.
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. A definitive survey of the Olympic games, from 776 B.C. to A.D. 261, this scholarly, yet immensely readable account of Olympic athletes in ancient times takes a highly realistic view of these fabled contests. Transporting readers back to the eighth century B.C., Professor M. I. Finley and Dr. H. W. Pleket draw upon their extensive knowledge of the ancient world to explain in absorbing detail the various sporting events and their historical, social, and religious context. They also detail the similarities and differences between ancient and modern games. Through their examination of ancient documents, the authors conclude that today's audiences would be astonished by the brutality exhibited in many of the Olympic events. The ferocity of boxing and wrestling matches, for example, is unparalleled in modern games. No event today could match the spectacle or excitement of the four-horse chariot races in which thirty to forty teams competed. Of special interest were the demands made by the victors, who expected, insisted upon, and procured material rewards for their victories, regardless of class or personal fortune. Richly illustrated with rare artwork, this authoritative account of one thousand years of early Olympic history will appeal not only to classical scholars but to all those interested in sports and athletic events.

Altijd de beste: Sport in de Griekse oudheid - druk 1
Language: Dutch
Published by Athenaeum - Polak & Van Gennep, 2014
ISBN 10: 9025304818 ISBN 13: 9789025304812
Softcover. Condition: Fine. Leichte Rillen / Abschürfungen / Risse / Knicke; Gebrochener Buchrücken. Sport in het oude Griekenland: wie denkt er niet aan de Olympische Spelen? Maar sport in Hellas is veel meer dan dat: van Homerus tot en met de tijd waarin Griekenland deel uitmaakte van het Romeinse rijk is sport altijd een middel geweest om uit te maken wie de beste was, wie het snelst kon lopen of het hardst kon slaan. H.W. Pleket is een autoriteit op zijn vakgebied. Niemand weet meer van de Griekse sport dan hij. Hij vertelt over de diverse toernooien, de status van de sporters, hun verdiensten, de verschillende sportdisciplines en de sportideologie. Een apart hoofdstuk is gewijd aan vrouwensport. De laatste inzichten en de nieuwste vondsten zijn in Altijd de beste verwerkt.
