For Pride, Profit, and Patriarchy: Football and the Incorporation of American Cultural Values
ISBN: 9780810836853 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Sports history has emerged as a popular study over the past quarter century, and scholars have fueled this interest by providing a wealth of information on baseball and its role in American culture. Despite this increasing focus on the connection between sports and societal values, football, the sport that emerged in the late nineteenth century and merged the values of winning and commercialization with the culture of higher education, has been left relatively unexplored. This gap in sports history has left many questions unanswered, including football's link to American cultural values....

Before Jackie Robinson: The Transcendent Role of Black Sporting Pioneers
ISBN: 9780803266797 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. While the accomplishments and influence of Jack Johnson, Joe Louis, Jesse Owens, Jackie Robinson, and Muhammad Ali are doubtless impressive solely on their merits, these luminaries of the black sporting experience did not emerge spontaneously. Their rise was part of a gradual evolution in social and power relations in American culture between the 1890s and 1940s that included athletes such as jockey Isaac Murphy, barnstorming pilot Bessie Coleman, and golfer Teddy Rhodes. The contributions of these early athletes to our broader collective history, and their heroic confrontations with the...

ISBN: 9780803245334 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 238 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Athletic Crusade is the first book to systematically analyze the role of sports in the expansion of U.S. empire from the 1890s through World War II. Gerald R. Gems details how white, Anglo-Saxon Protestant males set the standard for inclusion within American society, transferred that standard to foreign territories, and subtly used American sports to instill allegedly desirable racial, moral, and commercial virtues in colonial subjects. In the realm of such expansion, sports provided a less harsh, less militaristic means of instilling belief in a dominant system's values and...
