  • Sports, Theatre and Entertainment in the Ancient World
    Athletics, spectator sports, theatre, and other pastimes have become a consuming activity in our own time, cut short, at least temporarily, by our recent pandemic. How did these and other diversions develop in history? Are their antecedents found in the ancient world, especially in Greece and Rome? In this presentation, we will investigate the cultural roots and evolution of entertainment, especially the Greek and Roman games, as well as their theatre. Remember that the term culture comes from the Latin word cultus, in that most, if not all, of these activities have their origins in religious festivals or rites. We will also look into the social, economic and political dimensions of entertainment in antiquity. Since the Greek Olympic Year of 2014, dozens of studies have appeared that have enriched our understanding of these themes. While we will be concentrating on Greece and Rome, we will also briefly take glances of possible parallel developments in China, Egypt, Phoenicia, Byzantium, and elsewhere. Finally, we will study how these may have influenced our modern entertainments and recreation 1 In 2003, I participated in the First International Conference on History at the Athens Institute for Education and Research, and subsequently helped to edit the first collection of Essays, entitled Antiquity and Modernity: A Celebration of European History and Heritage in the Olympic Year 2004. It was soon followed by this host of publications. All of the books pictured (except two reprints) appeared between 2004 and 2015. A number of them gave new perspectives on Ancient athletics and sport, some of which I will briefly describe in this presentation….

  • Teaching Games for Understanding (Tgfu) - Beschreibung Und Analyse Eines Sportspieldidaktischen Vermittlungskonzeptes”
    Diplomarbeit Titel der Diplomarbeit „Teaching Games for Understanding (TGfU) - Beschreibung und Analyse eines sportspieldidaktischen Vermittlungskonzeptes” Verfasser Markus Haubenberger angestrebter akademischer Grad Magister der Naturwissenschaften (Mag. rer. nat.) Wien, im Mai 2012 Studienkennzahl lt. Studienblatt: A 190 482 344 Studienrichtung lt. Studienblatt: Lehramt Bewegung und Sport / Englisch Betreuer: Univ.-Prof. Mag. Dr. Michael Kolb Vorwort Während meines Lehramtsstudiums Bewegung & Sport und Englisch an der Universität Wien hatte ich die Chance, ein breit gefächertes Spektrum der Trainer – bzw. Betreuertätigkeit kennenzulernen. Ob Fußballtraining mit den „Minis“, die mit sechs Jahren erste taktische Konzepte verstehen lernen, Fußballtraining mit Schülern der Oberstufe, die taktische Vorgaben schon bedingt umsetzen oder Beachvolleyballkurse, bei denen in kurzer Zeit sichtbare Erfolge gewünscht werden - immer wieder beschäftigte mich dieselbe Frage, wie ich Sportspiele am effektivsten vermitteln kann, um den Kindern möglichst viele Erfolgserlebnisse zu bieten und ihnen Freude am Sport und dem Spiel zu gewähren. Sowohl bei den zahlreichen Hospitationen von Sportunterricht an verschiedenen Schulen, als auch bei den Sportvereinen meiner Heimat (ASK Ybbs, LAZ Wieselburg, FC Sarling) stelle ich fast immer fest, dass die Vermittlung der Technik der dominierende Teil der Trainingseinheiten ist und dadurch sehr häufig sehr wenig bis gar keine Spielzeit verbleibt. Auch im Sportunterricht, den ich im Gymnasium erteilt bekommen habe, wurde überwiegend technikorientiert unterrichtet. Ähnliches Bild in heimatlichen Fußballvereinen beginnend mit der U-8. Rückblickend kann ich sagen, dass vor allem ungeschicktere Kinder die Lust am Spiel verloren haben und oft die Turnstunde geschwänzt haben. Auch jene Burschen, die damals nicht so geschickt mit dem Fußball umgehen konnten, haben schon lange mit dem Fußballspielen aufgehört, weil sie sehr schnell die Freude am Spiel verloren hatten.

  • Regelkunde 1
    BASEBALL & SOFTBALL REGELKUNDE 1. DAS SPIELFELD In einem Baseballspiel stehen sich zwei Mannschaften zu je neun Spielern gegenüber. Gespielt wird auf einem Feld, das etwa einem Viertelkreis entspricht und eine Kantenlänge von ca. 100 Metern hat. Ähnlich dem Brennball befindet sich das verteidigende Team im Spielfeld und besetzt den Raum. Die Angreifer befinden sich außerhalb des eigentlichen Feldes und kommen nacheinander an den Schlag. Das Spielfeld nennt sich Fair Territory. Es unterteilt sich in das Infield, das die Bases umgibt und somit den inneren Bereich darstellt, und das Outfield, das den Rest des Spielfeldes bis zu einem hinteren Begrenzungszaun bildet. Das Spielfeld ist komplett eingezäunt. Den Bereich zwischen dem Fair Territory und dem seitlichen Begrenzungszaun nennt man Foul Territory. Bälle, die in diesen Bereich kommen, können zwar auch gespielt werden, grundsätzlich findet das Baseballspiel aber im Fair Territory statt. 4. HIT AND RUN! DAS SPIEL DER OFFENSIVE Ziel der Angreifer ist es, durch gute Schläge (Hits) die drei Bases im Infield zu umrunden und beim Überqueren der Home Plate einen Punkt (Run) zu erzielen. Nach einem Schlag wird der Batter zum Läufer (Runner) und versucht, so viele Bases wie möglich zu erlaufen. Je nach Qualität des Hits kann er eins, zwei oder drei Bases erlaufen und ist dort sicher (safe). Schafft er sogar alle vier Bases auf einmal zu umlaufen, nennt man dies einen Home Run. 5. OUT! DAS SPIEL DER DEFENSIVE Ziel der Defensive ist es, drei Angreifer aus (out) zu machen, um selbst das Schlagrecht zu erlangen und somit die Möglichkeit, Punkte zu erzielen. Hierzu haben die Verteidiger vier Möglichkeiten: \ Das Strike Out: Wie unter 3.

  • The Olympic Games and Ritual Archery 14.1 08
    UNIVERSITY OF PELOPONNESE FACULTY OF HUMAN MOVEMENT AND QUALITY OF LIFE SCIENCES DEPARTMENT OF SPORTS ORGANIZATION AND MANAGEMENT MASTER’S THESIS “OLYMPIC STUDIES, OLYMPIC EDUCATION, ORGANIZATION AND MANAGEMENT OF OLYMPIC EVENTS” The Olympic Games and Ritual Archery: A Comparative Study of Sport between Ancient Greece and Early China (—200 BC) Nianliang Pang Supervisor : Professor Dr. Susan Brownell Dr. Werner Petermandl Dr. Zinon Papakonstantinou Sparta, Dec., 2013 i Abstract This research conducts a comparison between the Olympic Games in ancient Greece and ritual archery in early China before 200 BC, illustrating the similarities and differences between the two institutionalized cultural activities in terms of their trans-cultural comparison in regard to their origin, development, competitors, administration, process and function. Cross cultural comparison is a research method to comprehend heterogeneous culture through systematic comparisons of cultural factors across as wide domain. The ritual archery in early China and the Olympic Games in ancient Greece were both long-lived, institutionalized physical competitive activities integrating competition, rituals and music with communication in the ancient period. To compare the two programs can make us better understand the isolated civilizations in that period. In examining the cultural factors from the two programs, I find that both were originally connected with religion and legendary heroes in myths and experienced a process of secularization; both were closely intertwined with politics in antiquity, connected physical competitions with moral education, bore significant educational functions and played an important role in respective society. The administrators of the two cultural programs had reputable social rank and were professional at managing programs with systematic administrative knowledge and procedures.

  • Isthmia Panhellenic Games
    ISTHMIA PANHELLENIC GAMES The Isthmian Games or Isthmia were one of the Panhellenic Games of Ancient Greece and were named after the isthmus of Corinth where they were held. Both the Isthmian and Nemean Games were held the year before and the year after the Olympic Games (the second and fourth years of an Olympiad), while the Pythian Games of Delphi were held in the third year of the Olympiad cycle. The Games were reputed to have originated as funeral games for Mericertes . Theseus, legendary king of Athens, expanded these funeral games from a closed nightly rite into fully-fledged athletic-games event, dedicated to Poseidon. Open to all Greeks, was at a suitable level of advancement and popularity to rival those in Olympia, which were founded by Heracles. Theseus arranged with the Corinthians, the Athenian visitors to the Isthmian games to be granted the privilege of front seats. At least until the 5th century BC the winners of the Isthmian games received a wreath of wild celery; later, it was altered to pine leaves’ wreath. Victors could also be honored with a statue or an ode. Besides these prizes of honor, the city of Athens awarded victorious Athenians with an extra 100 drachmas. From 228 BC or 229 BC onwards the Romans were allowed to take part in the games. The Games were always under the ownership of Corinth, apart a rather small period during the Roman empire after which, they flourished until Theodosius I suppressed them as a pagan ritual Before the games began, a truce was declared by Corinth to grant athletes safe passage through Greece.

  • Richtig Ballwerfen Lernen
    Fortbildung: Werfen und Stoßen im Grundlagentraining Jena, 21.03.2009 Dana Bachmann ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Richtig Ballwerfen lernen 1. Grundlegendes: Warum werfen? - Leichtathletik gehört neben Schwimmen und Turnen zu Kernsportarten - Inhalte gehen auf die Grundformen der menschlichen Bewegung zurück und Werfen stellt eine dieser Grundformen dar - außerdem ist Werfen Voraussetzung für das Erlernen weiterer Bewegungsabläufe (z. B. Speerwerfen) und verschiedener Sportarten - zunehmende Bebauung und fehlende Spiel- und Freiplätze in der Stadt hindern Kinder am Werfen - GÜLDENPFENNIG stellte in Studie mit 162 Grundschülern z. B. fest, dass Kinder aus ländlichen Gebieten den Stadtkindern unter anderem in Testdisziplin Zielwerfen überlegen sind - Rückgang der leichtathletischen Grundfähigkeit Werfen im freien Spiel der Kinder wird heutzutage beklagt und mit der bewegungsunfreundlichen zivilisierten Umwelt begründet man kann Werfen nicht mehr unumstritten wie das Laufen und Springen zu den »natürlichen« Fertigkeiten zählen, da die Kinder zu wenig Erfahrung in Freizeit sammeln 2. Der Schlagwurf 2.1 Allgemein: - Schlagwurf (Kernwurf oder gerader Wurf) ist die am häufigsten angewandte Wurfform - Schlagbewegung des Unterarms und der Hand sichert höchste Zielgenauigkeit - diese Wurfform findet nicht nur in Leichtathletik beim Weitwerfen oder Speerwerfen Anwendung, sondern ist ebenfalls Bestandteil vieler kleiner und großer (Sport-)Spiele (z. B. Handball) -

  • Teachers' Notes
    1 THE WORLD OF PLAY : TEACHERS’ NOTES This student’s Book has been designed for students of 4th ESO. But it may be used and adapted for other groups, too; for example it may be of some use for the design and preparation of a ‘Crèdit Variable’ or even an ‘Optativa de Batxillerat’. DURATION OF THE MODULE The module’s duration is of approximately 20 hours, distributed in 5 lessons of 4 hours each. The first 4 lessons are made up of : • THEMATIC INTRODUCTION: 8 hours • PRACTICAL GAME PLAYING: 8 hours • CREATIVE GAME DESIGN (assessment): 4 hours or more. The Thematic Introductions can be taught in the classroom, and can be used not only in PE lessons but also in English Language Lessons (this will be our option). CONTENTS The contents are based on P.E. but the topics covered in each unit do also include other aspects related to subjects such as Ethics, Philosophy, Geography and History. The contents are not part of the compulsory PE syllabus; they are a free interpretation of it. They are just a proposal for teachers and an invitation to take and reuse them in any way. Of course, the thematic introduction may be reduced to a much more PE-like format. AIMS The formal aims of the module are the following: • To make the English language the vehicle of the teaching and learning process. • To introduce them to the concept of play as an important aspect of life and culture. • To use games as a ‘catalyser’ not only for physical and social skills but also for thinking skills and as a source of knowledge.
