Last spring, I had the opportunity to in- terview one of the New Cosmos newest play- ers, Mads Stokkelien, from Kristiansand, Norway. The New Cosmos has risen from the ashes of the original Cosmos team that dissolved almost 30 years ago. This is no small feat. The original team was owned by Warner Communications, a business flush with cash that hand picked the best players from around the world, boasting Pele, Beckenbauer, and Chinaglia. The team was also instrumental in popularizing the world’s most favored sport—outside of the U.S., that is—into a respectable sport inside the U.S. However, for a variety of reasons the Cosmos could not endure, and the team folded in 1985. The team was reborn two years ago as part of the New North American Soccer League. Hofstra University’s Shuart Sta- dium has replaced Giant Stadium. Last year was their first season and they played mag- nificently, winning the 2013 Soccer Bowl. Mads is from Kristiansand, where he played soccer for the local team. At 21 he moved to Oslo to play for Stabæk. He signed with the Cosmos in February 2014. In my last interview, I asked Mads about his life- long passion for the game. He recounted, “Since I was four or five years old, I played soccer most of the time. In all the pictures I have from me as a child I always had a ball in my hand or at my feet.

It took a good long while tae admit it and I’ve tried tae make up for lost time, for a’ the years I dithered about whether or not it wis true. These last few years especially I’ve done ma best, done right by Lorna and wee Olivia even if they couldnae understand. They don’t know whit he is. They don’t know Bradley left us a long time ago, that day in the woods. September, 2003 This is ma favourite place. The way the trees come crowing up tae the shore of the loch, closing us in tae our own wee private beach: ye cannae beat it. Lorna’s minding the baby, letting her roll around on the picnic blanket among the half-chewed cheese and ham pieces. She’s still a stunner, my Lorna, even after having two weans. Run ragged looking after them, so she is, but ye’d never know it looking at her. She’s kept her hair long and bonny, not like a lot of they mum’s I see at the school gates. I catch her eye and she gies me a wink and a smile, holding up Olivia’s wee hand to wave at me. I wave back at ma girls and have a check in with ma boy. He’s near enough up tae my waist now. He’s trying tae skip stones across the water but they’re landing wi’ splattering plops.

After the ‘discovery’ of African pygmies in the 1860s, little people became a powerful way of imaginatively connecting to an inconceivably distant past, and the place of humans within it. Little people in fin de siècle narratives have been commonly interpreted as atavistic, stunted warnings of biological reversion. I suggest that there are other readings available: by deploying two nineteenth-century anthropological theories – E. B. Tylor’s doctrine of ‘survivals’, and euhemerism, a model proposing that the mythology surrounding fairies was based on the existence of real ‘little people’ – they can also be read as positive symbols of the tenacity of the human spirit, and as offering access to a sacred, spiritual, or magic, world.
