CEA Newsletter Page 3 Popcorn and a Pony: movie review Miracle Of The White Stallions (1963) PG: Walt Disney sets the pace for what the famed Lipizzan horses of the Spanish Riding school had to endure to survive World War ll. Their survival depended on the people who be- lieve in them. We see them venture through Austria for safety. The head of the Spanish Riding School, Col. Alois Podhajsky (who actually won a Bronze medal in Dressage, in the1936 Olympics held in Berlin) He gathers his best horses and riders together to put on a show for General George Patton, or the U.S. Army (who competed in equestrian events in the 1912 Olympics) After viewing this magnificent show, The U.S. Army decided to pro- tect these horses. The movie can be a bit slow at times, but I find watching these gorgeous animals perform well worth it. We also get to see the inside of the lavish Spanish riding school and the Hermes Castle, both which have dreamy arenas and stables. If you haven’t had the chance to see “The World Famous Lipizzaner Stallions” when they are on tour, the performances in this movie will give you an idea of what you’ve been missing.

    Operation Cowboy Junior Individual Documentary Sophia Winters Process Paper: 395 I chose to do the National History Day project over Operation Cowboy. I knew I wanted to do something horse related when I learned about the project and I found that many people were not aware of this event in history. After debating between this topic and various other equine-related events, I chose operation cowboy because it seemed to best fit the theme. I started my research with a book. The Perfect Horse, by Elizabeth Letts. It had the most detailed account of what happened. I had read the book before but I read it again to mark important details and events as well as to refresh my memory. I then turned to online sources. Unfortunately, not a lot of information exists about this topic so some extra research was required. I started coming across news articles that were very helpful and photographs from the event. Finding an interview was also a struggle. I made was able to contact the author of The Perfect Horse, Elizabeth Letts, but she was on tour for a new book she is writing. She was able to connect me with someone whose father had been on the mission. Maureen Quinlivian-Nolen was very helpful and agreed to answer my questions. We emailed a couple times before she emailed me her response to my questions. She was also able to provide a picture of her and a picture of her dad. After the majority of my research was done I realized I needed to finalize my decision on what form of presentation I would choose.

    HAUTE ÉCOLE Quarterly Publication of the Lipizzan Association of North America Volume 17, Issue 2 LIPIZZAN TEAM WINS A GREAT RACE By Dr. Delphi Toth, Huszár Farm Lipizzans, Valley City, Ohio This is a true story, told to me often by my first and beloved riding master, Michael VonDerNonne, an old-world classical horseman who was born in 1897 in the Austro-Hungarian Empire and who came to live in northern Ohio after World War II. The first time I saw Michael, he was atop a mag- nificent gray doing an elegant passage down the barn aisle. “Wow!” was all that my child’s brain could manage in response to this stunning presence. As I watched this wonderful tall man come down from his wonderful tall horse, I saw him become shorter and shorter as his came to the ground and his legs began to bow out, reducing his height by yet another few inches. He was so bow-legged a pony could have been slipped underneath him as he was standing there. Herr VonDerNonne, I learned, was a former VonDerNonne, my first riding master, and Dina, cavalry officer, an Eastern European aristocrat and my professor horse, in 1969 a dressage master. I became his student then his apprentice.

The yards of the Prince Kar! of Trauttmansdorff-Weinsberg ( 1845-1921) were leased by the Austrian­ Hungarian Agricultural Ministry and the horses were accommodated there after the troublesome joumey. After 1916 all military studs were dissolved by the govemment at that time and the military stud of Hostau was converted into a regular stud farm . Three stallions were assigned to Hostau: an Arab half-breed, an English half-breed and a Hanoverian. The main stud with 200 mares and three stallions was placed at the fannyard in Zwirschen. After the end of the war, the horses were transferred to Klattau, but as soon as normal conditions were gained again, the remaining horses returned back to Hostau. Some years later the leasehold became property of the Czechoslovakian state. After 1918 the majority of the fields were converted into pastures. The area of 1200 acreswas reduced to 250 acres for husbandry. The number of horses was 500 at this time. The stud fa rm increased. Some thoroughbred mares and thorougbbred and half-breed stalli ons were purchased abroad.

By the end of last century, people began to question the prevailing view that animals are inferior to humans, and thus a re-examination of existing relationships between humans and animals has been sought. An immediate outcome of this critical undertaking has been the raising of ethical questions regarding the involvement of animals in sports. As part of this, the discipline of sports dressage has been subject to heavy cri- ticism. Today, within both contemporary theoretical discourses and equestrian practices, greater focus is placed on the horse’s own subjectivity, along with its own field of experiences and its own perspective. Due to this, it is possible to index how it is that: traditional equestrian cultures are today in transition. At least in Europe, the development of teaching in riding has its roots in tradi- tional military discourse, which assumed the horse to be an instrument rather than a sensitive, feeling animal, and therefore considered the horse to be under the com- mand of the rider.

Box 1133 Anderson, IN 46015 Http://www.lipizzan.org Email: [email protected] THE LIPIZZAN Developed exclusively by the Hapsburg mon- archy for its use during times of war and peace, the Lipizzan is the true horse of royalty. Four hundred years of selective breeding have made the Lipizzan one of Europe's oldest breeds of horse. The Lipizzan's historical and cultural development enhances its mystique. Physically capable of withstanding the demands of the Airs Above the Ground, this baroque mount was bred to perform haute ecole dressage at the Spanish Riding School and owes its survival to the intervention of American General George S. Patton during World War II. BREED ORIGIN The Hapsburg family controlled both Spain and Austria when the art of classical riding re- vived in Europe during the Renaissance. There was a need for light, fast horses for use in the military and the riding school. The Spanish horse, produced during Moorish rule by crossing Berber and Arab stallions with Iberian mares, was considered the most suitable mount because of its excep- tional sturdiness, beauty, and intelligence. In 1562, Maximil- lian II brought the Spanish horse to Austria and founded the court stud at Kladrub. His brother Archduke Charles estab- lished a similar private imperial studfarm with Spanish stock in 1580 at Lippiza (nowadays: Lipizza [Italian], or Lipica [Slovenian]) near the Adriatic Sea. Here on the Karst plateau near Triest the type of horse which was bred in Lippiza was called the Lippizaner. Today in Europe the breed is called Lipizzaner or, in America, Lipizzan.

  • Timeline of the Development of the Horse
    SINO-PLATONIC PAPERS Number 177 August, 2007 Timeline of the Development of the Horse by Beverley Davis Victor H. Mair, Editor Sino-Platonic Papers Department of East Asian Languages and Civilizations University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia, PA 19104-6305 USA [email protected] www.sino-platonic.org SINO-PLATONIC PAPERS is an occasional series edited by Victor H. Mair. The purpose of the series is to make available to specialists and the interested public the results of research that, because of its unconventional or controversial nature, might otherwise go unpublished. The editor actively encourages younger, not yet well established, scholars and independent authors to submit manuscripts for consideration. Contributions in any of the major scholarly languages of the world, including Romanized Modern Standard Mandarin (MSM) and Japanese, are acceptable. In special circumstances, papers written in one of the Sinitic topolects (fangyan) may be considered for publication. Although the chief focus of Sino-Platonic Papers is on the intercultural relations of China with other peoples, challenging and creative studies on a wide variety of philological subjects will be entertained. This series is not the place for safe, sober, and stodgy presentations. Sino-Platonic Papers prefers lively work that, while taking reasonable risks to advance the field, capitalizes on brilliant new insights into the development of civilization. The only style-sheet we honor is that of consistency. Where possible, we prefer the usages of the Journal of Asian Studies. Sinographs (hanzi, also called tetragraphs [fangkuaizi]) and other unusual symbols should be kept to an absolute minimum. Sino-Platonic Papers emphasizes substance over form.

The completion of this work has only been made possible by the guidance and support that I have received from a number of exceptional people. I would first like to say a huge thank you to Professor Stephen Clark for believing in this project in the first place, and for taking a chance on me. I would also like to say a huge thank you to my supervisors, without whom this project would not have been possible: to my primary supervisor, Dr Panayiota Vassilopoulou, whose support, encouragement and friendship throughout this process has been invaluable. Yiota always pushed me to be the best I could be, and finally helped me to believe that I had a voice and was entitled to use it. Thank you. It has been an honour to be your first Ph.D student. I would also like to express my gratitude to Dr Jennifer Kewley Draskau, with whom I spent many hours discussing the artistic elements of dressage, and who also lifted me out of despair on more than one occasion. Jennifer’s demand for perfection and her strict attention to detail drove me to finally learn to punctuate prose.
