  • Het Fenomeen “Poeske” Scherens
    KATHOLIEKE UNIVERSITEIT LEUVEN FACULTEIT LETTEREN MASTER IN DE GESCHIEDENIS Het fenomeen “Poeske” Scherens Promotor Masterproef Prof. dr. D. VANYSACKER ingediend door HERPELINCK FRAN Leuven 2010-2011 Voorwoord Alsof hij soms even tot leven kwam, in een literaire wielerflits. Alsof hij soms even aan de einder voorbijvloog, in een welgemikte ‘kattensprong’. Jef “Poeske” Scherens is al even niet meer onder ons, maar zijn sportieve adem, evenals de ziel van zijn tijdsperiode, zijn vervat in honderden documenten, in archieven overal te lande, in privé-collecties, in oude kranten en tijdschriften. Het afgelopen jaar was er een van puzzelwerk. Puzzelstukjes vinden, was geen probleem. Punt was te kijken welk stukje het meest authentiek was. Vele stukjes blonken immers buitensporig fel. Jef “Poeske” Scherens was een overstijgende persoonlijkheid, die zowel op als naast de fiets wist te fascineren. Als sprintende baanwielrenner kende hij in de periode tussen de Twee Wereldoorlogen, het interbellum van de twintigste eeuw, veruit zijn gelijke niet. Scherens was als ‘fenomeen’ een ‘idool’, die supporters deed juichen, journalisten in de pen deed kruipen en lyrische reacties aan hen ontlokte. In een fervente poging op zoek te gaan naar een kern van waarheid en tijdsgevoel, was het vaak noodzakelijk mezelf te berispen, wanneer enthousiasme primeerde op kritische zin. Het leven van Jef Scherens rolt zich dan ook uit als een lofdicht, dat doorheen de jaren haast niet aan charme heeft ingeboet. Na een intensieve kennismaking met “Poeske”, wielerheld en volksfiguur, was ik anderzijds terdege verwonderd . De laatste decennia kenden wielerbelangstelling en ‘koersliteratuur’ een enorme hausse . Kronieken, biografieën en poëtische werken worden gekleurd door noeste renners en wervelende persoonlijkheden - al kan er sprake zijn van een chronologische en pragmatische richtlijn.
