Abstract

Die produktive Verbindung von ästhetischer und technischer Modernität machte den Sport am Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts zu einem Paradigma der kulturellen Moderne, dessen Bedeutung Robert Musil als einer der ersten reflektierte. Vor dem Hintergrund der zeitgenössischen Diskurse über die Techniken des bewegten Körpers in Arbeit, Wettkampf und Kultur, die den Sport als Lebensform des modernen Menschen propagierten, untersucht die Verfasserin 'Sport' als Gegenstand der Kulturkritik und als poetologisches Konzept in Musils Werk. An der Schnittstelle von Naturwissenschaft, Technik und moderner Ästhetik leistet die Studie einen wesentlichen Beitrag zur Kulturgeschichte des Sports, zu Theorie und Ästhetik der Moderne sowie zur Musil-Forschung.

Abstract

In this comprehensive and insightful study, Christian K. Messenger contends that American writers have always created characters at play in the sure knowledge that to be active in sport in America is to be in touch with its people, their traditions, and their fantasy lives.This is the first inclusive critical study of sport in American fiction with chapters on individual authors such as Hawthorne, Lardner, Fitzgerald, Hemingway, and Faulkner, as well as studies of sport in the literature of the frontier and in boys' formula fiction. A work of literary criticism, Sport and the Spirit of Play in American Fiction also draws on the cultural history of American sport and leisure and on a century of American literature.

Abstract

Sport literature is never just about sport. The genre’s potential to explore the human condition, including aspects of violence, gender, and the body, has sparked the interest of writers, readers, and scholars. Over the last decade, a proliferation of sport literature courses across the continent is evidence of the sophisticated and evolving body of work developing in this area. Writing the Body in Motion offers introductory essays on the most commonly taught Canadian sport literature texts. The contributions sketch the state of current scholarship, highlight recurring themes and patterns, and offer close readings of key works. Organized chronologically by source text, ranging from Shoeless Joe (1982) to Indian Horse (2012), the essays offer a variety of ways to read, consider, teach, and write about sport literature.With contributions by Jason Blake, Laura K. Davis, Cara Hedley, Paul Martin, Fred Mason, Sam McKegney, Gyllian Phillips, Trevor J. Phillips, and Cory Willard.

Abstract

In his important contribution to the growing field of sports literature, Anthony Bateman traces the relationship between literary representations of cricket and Anglo-British national identity from 1850 to the mid 1980's, with an in-depth look at cricket during the interwar period and the sport's transmission throughout the British empire. Examining newspaper accounts, instructional books, fiction, and poetry, Bateman elaborates how the long tradition of literary discourse produced cricket's cultural status and meaning.

Abstract

Wie manifestieren sich Sport und Spiel im Denken und in der Praxis von Gesellschaften? Sport als Medienereignis und als ein die Massen bewegendes Spektakel hat eine eminente soziale, politische und kommerzielle Bedeutung – und in der Darstellung in Literatur und Film auch eine ästhetische Dimension. Die Beiträge konzentrieren sich aus afrikanischer und deutscher Sicht auf diese Aspekte und reflektieren Entwicklungen des Sports und des Spiels in Afrika und Europa. Untersucht werden verschüttete und wirksame Modelle, Voraussetzungen, Hoffnungen und Ängste, Möglichkeiten und Gesetzmäßigkeiten des Sports und des Spiels in einer sich immer stärker globalisierenden Welt.
