In welchem Verhältnis standen Sport, Ideologie und Mobilisierung in Südosteuropa im 19. und 20. Jahrhundert zueinander? Bereits in der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts dienten auch in dieser Region Sport und Körperbewegung als ein Vehikel ethnischer, nationaler und sozialer Aspirationen, die als solche medial kommuniziert und von der Öffentlichkeit wahrgenommen wurden. In der Zwischenkriegszeit bestanden gleichzeitig Tendenzen einer uniformierenden und letztlich paramilitärischen Auffassung vom Sport sowie vielfältige Formen transnationaler Kooperation. Die totalitären Regime des 20. Jahrhunderts implizierten eine ideologische Vereinnahmung von Sport und Bewegung. Die Texte internationaler Autor/innen beleuchten diese Prozesse im historischen Kontext mit Blick auf verschiedene Epochen, Staatsformen und Ideologen sowie diverse Sportarten. Ein besonderer Schwerpunkt liegt dabei auf Vereinen und Bewegungen, die sich als "deutsch" verstanden bzw. (zumindest zeitweise) deutschsprachig waren.
Ljubav - neiscrpan izvor inspiracije umetnika. Ljubav - najlepse osecanje od postanka sveta. Ljubav - neizmerno bogatstvo, najveca radost, magicna rec, razlog za zivot, motiv za budjenje u novom danu... Milenijumima opevavana, oslikavana recima i kistom... I, ma, koliko o njoj pevali i pisali, nikad ne mozemo reci sve. Ona je pokretac sveta i svakog dobra u njemu. Zbog ljubavi padamo, zbog nje se i podizemo. Zbog ljubavi stradamo, zbog nje i zivimo. Zbog ljubavi tugujemo, ali se i radujemo. Ljubav je pored zivota najveci dar od Boga.Zaplovimo sa Ivom Torbicom u more ljubavi, napijmo se dijamantskim kapima sa njenog izvora, nahranimo se njenom nepresusnom lepotom. Neka ova knjiga bude podstrek svakom citaocu, da zivi ljubav i uziva u ljubavnom beskraju!(Lucija Tasic o zbirci pesama Gladni coveka)

Experts of ancient sport have long treated "money" and "honor" as opposites. Up to the 1970s, the idea of Greek gentlemen's sport prevailed. It is one of the most exciting challenges for sport historians to overcome this opposition and to develop a concept that integrates the economic and symbolic motivations of ancient athletes. From the very beginning, economic aspects played a role in Greek sport, and honor remained important until the end of ancient athletics. But despite these continuities there are obvious developments in favor of economic factors: Cash prizes grew in importance since the Hellenistic period, and symbolical honors awarded to victorious athletes by their hometowns were transformed into financial ones. The studies collected in this volume aim at exploring the relationship of money and honor with regard to athletes, festivals and poleis.

This is a study of sea power and maritime strategy in the Classical Greek world. More than just a study of navies and battles, it examines how the sea was used to influence events ashore and how the use of naval power combined with land power had a defining impact on the period. After an examination of the oft-overlooked practical issues of navigation and administration, the book explores the idea of a 'maritime consciousness' in Greece and how this shaped the way the Greeks engaged in war. Naval operations from the Persian Wars down to the rise of Thebes are examined at the operational and strategic level, including a catalogue of the hundreds of different maritime operations from the 5 th and 4 th centuries BCE. Further, while the great sea power Athens is most prominent, it looks at other city-states to examine how they utilised sea power. This new approach uses modern theory to highlight some enduring lessons of sea power. It demonstrates that Classical scholars should embrace sea power as an important concept in the Greek world. Modern scholars of naval and strategic studies should cast their gaze further back in time when looking for lessons in sea power. This book helps to bridge the scholarship between these two disciplines.
Was migration to Germany a blessing or a curse? The main argument of this book is that the Greek state conceived labor migration as a traineeship into Europeanization with its shiny varnish of progress. Jumping on a fully packed train to West Germany meant leaving the past behind. However, the tensed Cold War realities left no space for illusions; specters of the Nazi past and the Greek Civil War still haunted them all. Adopting a transnational approach, this monograph retargets attention to the sending state by exploring how the Greek Gastarbeiter's welfare was intrinsically connected with their homeland through its exercise of long-distance nationalism. Apart from its fresh take in postwar migration, the book also addresses methodological challenges in creative ways. The narrative alternates between the macro- and the micro-level, including subnational and transnational actors and integrating a diverse set of primary sources and voices. Avoiding the trap of exceptionalism, it contextualizes the Greek case in the Mediterranean and Southeast European experience.
The book explores the key concerns in the United States of America, as well as around the world today, related to the significance of ecology, eco-consciousness and climate change.The chapters by individual authors reflect the topics both from a theoretical and from an ecocritical perspective. In the former case, they analyze effects of the present ecological crises (i.e. climate change and pandemics), the emergence and development of environmental humanities, posthumanism, ecocriticism, ecofeminism, and ecotheology. In the latter case, they offer readings of American literary texts of the 20th and 21st centuries as significant case studies.

À la poursuite de l'horizon est le journal d'un premier voyage en solitaire. S'interdisant de monter dans un avion, un train ou une voiture, Matthieu Stelvio est parti à vélo de chez lui, a traversé 20 pays et parcouru plus de 11000 kilomètres à la force de ses mollets. Oscillant entre émerveillements et désillusions, ce récit initiatique décrit les premières semaines d'un périple européen, des Alpes françaises à la Grèce. Quelques années après cette aventure méditerranéenne seront publiés Les Immensités secrètes et Les Reliefs éphémères, récits prolongeant l'exploration des richesses inépuisables d'un continent.EXTRAIT : "D'habitude, le matin, lorsque je me réveille, je sais où je suis. D'habitude, le matin, lorsque je me réveille, c'est pour vivre une journée que je connais déjà. D'habitude, le matin, lorsque je me réveille, j'ai envie de me rendormir.Subitement, tout est différent : je me crois dans mon lit, j'ouvre les yeux et ne sais plus où je me trouve. Les murs bougent, disparaissent. Une tente ? Mon voyage me revient en tête. Je me sens tout excité. Ce soir, serai-je en Italie ? Où dormirai-je ? Au coeur d'un alpage, dans une forêt, au bord d'une rivière ? Qui rencontrerai-je ? Par où passerai-je ? Le col du Galibier ? Le col de Montgenèvre ? L'Iseran ? Croiserai-je des marmottes, des marmottons, des chamois, des aigles, des vautours, des gypaètes ? Je me lève et prends doucement conscience que, désormais, chaque jour, j'écrirai ma vie, qu'elle ne me sera plus dictée. Pas de temps à perdre, je ne dois pas gâcher la moindre seconde de liberté. Plus tard, lorsque je vivrai à nouveau la routine d'un monde que je n'ai pas vraiment choisi, j'aurai le droit d'être paresseux ; mais là, tout de suite, maintenant, il faut se battre, être jeune, vivre fort !"
