When Sports Conquered the Republic: A Forgotten Chapter From the «Roaring Twenties.» Abstract After the First World War, sport experienced an astonishing growth in the successor states to the two empires of central Europe, a growth which can only be explained sociologically in terms of the general character of the twentieth century as a «physical century.» Furthermore, the intellectual climate of the times as well as the psychic state of the freshly-hatched Republicans plays a special role. That is, the enormous fascination with the «Moloch of sport» can be explained on the one hand by a non-intellectual worshipping of purely physical, measurable maximum achievements (record-mania), on the other by the America-cult that arose during this period (identical with the positive myth of technology, the cult of machines that replaced the pre-war view).

  • Bob Fitzsimmons
    1 Bob Fitzsimmons Name: Bob Fitzsimmons Alias: Ruby Birth Name: Robert James Fitzsimmons Born: 1863-05-26 Birthplace: Helston, Cornwall, United Kingdom Died: 1917-10-22 (Age:54) Hometown: Timaru, New Zealand Stance: Orthodox Height: 5′ 11½″ / 182cm Reach: 71½″ / 182cm Boxing Record: click The first triple titleholder in history, Bob Fitzsimmons won the world middleweight, heavyweight, and light heavyweight championships in a career that spanned 27 years. As a young man, Fitzsimmons worked as a blacksmith, and his punches held the power of an iron hammer hitting an anvil. He defied age, consistently fought larger men, and was crafty and resilient in the ring. Born in England, Fitzsimmons moved to New Zealand with his family as a small boy. School was a luxury and, before long, Fitzsimmons went to work as a carriage painter and in a foundry. His interest in boxing heated up when he entered an amateur boxing tournament supervised by visiting Hall of Famer Jem Mace. Weighing just 140 pounds, Fitzsimmons knocked out four larger opponents and won the heavyweight division of the contest. In 1883, Fitzsimmons moved to Australia, where his first recorded professional bouts took place. Over the next seven years, he posted a record of 15-5, with six no-decisions. In 1890, he travelled to America where three knockout bouts earned him a chance to fight world middleweight champion Jack Dempsey (The Nonpareil). Fitzsimmons proved to be more than Dempsey's equal and, after a vicious battle, he knocked the champion out in the thirteenth round. Fitzsimmons defended his middleweight crown just once before aiming at the heavyweight title.

    “Building Up a Nation Once Again―: Irish Masculinity, Violence, and the Cultural Politics of Sports in A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and Ulysses Peter C.L. Nohrnberg Joyce Studies Annual, Volume 2010, pp. 99-152 (Article) Published by Fordham University Press DOI: 10.1353/joy.2011.0005 For additional information about this article http://muse.jhu.edu/journals/joy/summary/v2010/2010.nohrnberg.html Access Provided by UFMG-Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais at 11/07/12 11:50AM GMT ‘‘Building Up a Nation Once Again’’ Irish Masculinity, Violence, and the Cultural Politics of Sports in A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and Ulysses PETER C.L. NOHRNBERG It is true that advanced capitalist orders need to ward off alienation and anomie with some kind of collective symbolism and ritual, complete with group solidarity, virile competition, a pantheon of legendary heroes and a carnivalesque release of repressed energies. But this is provided by sport, which conveniently combines the aesthetic aspect of Culture with the corporate dimension of culture, becoming for its devotees both an artistic experience and a whole way of life. It is interesting to speculate what the political effects of a society without sport would be.1 In Terry Eagleton’s account of the role played by sports in contemporary society, athletics offers a collective ritual that can give meaning to the dreadful banalities of life under the sign of late-stage capitalism while avoiding the violence that religion in its most sectarian aspect cultivates. This description invites us to consider the relationship between the rise of organized sports as a collective cultural practice in the West and both the gradual fading of religious belief and the ascendancy of nationalism as a political ideology.

My dissertation illuminates the social meaning of prize fighting between 1882 and 1913 considering interactions between culture and power relations. My dissertation understands prize fighting as a cultural text, structured in conjunction with social relations and power struggles. In so doing, the dissertation details how agents used a sport to construct, reinforce, blur, multiply, and shift social and cultural boundaries for the construction of group identities and how their signifying
