Abstract

Les Jeux olympiques sont l'un des plus grands spectacles mondiaux. Nous venons y contempler les Dieux du stade accomplir des exploits, vivre des tragédies, rechercher le geste parfait. Nous y observons aussi - le sport n'est pas hors du monde - les enjeux géopolitiques et économiques, les progrès techniques, et puis les mesquineries, la corruption, le dopage, etc. Un concentré de notre société et des destins individuels mêlés. Du poing ganté de cuir noir des athlètes Carlo et Smith à Mexico aux courses irréelles de Usain Bolt, du parcours de la flamme olympique à l'attentat de Munich contre l'équipe israélienne, d'Alain Mimoun et son mouchoir blanc à Nadia Comaneci et à tous ces moments célèbres ou un peu oubliés qui peuplent notre mémoire collective, voici 100 histoires qui ont fait celle des Jeux olympiques.

Abstract

Held in Germany, the 1936 Olympic Games sparked international controversy. Should athletes and nations boycott the games to protest the Nazi regime? More Than Just Games is the history of Canada's involvement in the 1936 Olympics. It is the story of the Canadian Olympic officials and promoters who were convinced that national unity and pride demanded that Canadian athletes compete in the Olympics without regard for politics. It is the story of those Canadian athletes, mostly young and far more focused on sport thanpolitics, who were eager to make family, friends, and country proud of their efforts on Canada's behalf. And, finally, it is the story of those Canadians who led an unsuccessful campaign to boycott the Olympics and deny Nazi Germany the propaganda coup of serving as an Olympic host.Written by two noted historians of Canadian Jewish history, Richard Menkis and Harold Troper, More than Just Games brings to life the collision of politics, patriotism, and the passion of sport on the eve of the Second World War.

Abstract

The Berlin Olympics, August 14, 1936. German rowers, dominant at the Games, line up against America's top eight-oared crew. Hundreds of millions of listeners worldwide wait by their radios. Leni Riefenstahl prepares her cameramen. Grantland Rice looks past the 75,000 spectators crowding the riverbank. Above it all, the Nazi leadership, flush with the propaganda triumph the Olympics have given their New Germany, await a crowning victory they can broadcast to the world. The Berlin Games matched cutting-edge communication technology with compelling sports narrative to draw the blueprint for all future sports broadcasting. Michael J. Socolow's account moves from the era's technological innovations to the human drama of how the race changed the lives of nine young men.

Abstract

"Leni Riefenstahl's Olympia (1938) is one of the most controversial films ever made. Capitalising on the success of Triumph of the will (1935), her propaganda film for the Nazi Party, Riefenstahl secured Hitler's approval for her grandiose plans to film the 1936 Berlin Olympics. The result was a work as notorious for its politics as celebrated for its aesthetic power. This revised edition includes new material on Riefenstahl's film-making career before Olympia and her close relationship with Hitler. Taylor Downing also discusses newly-available evidence on the background to the film's production that conclusively proves that the film was directly commissioned by Hitler and funded through Goebbel's Ministry of Propaganda and not, as Riefenstahl later claimed, commissioned independently from the Nazi state by the Olympic authorities. In writing this edition, Taylor Downing has been given access to a magnificent new restoration of the original version of the film by the International Olympic Committee."--Page 4 of cover.
