Newell Professor of Kinesiology Head of Department of Kinesiology *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ii Abstract As the cradle of modern sport, Britain‘s rich sporting history contributed significantly to the nation‘s identity both at home and abroad. Through their governance and control of leading bureaucratic organizations and clubs, the British established and maintained a position of leadership both on and off the field. Britain‘s early sporting dominance, coupled with the use of sport as medium for shaping the abilities, values and character of a British governing class, cultivated a belief that sport played a crucial role in the acquisition and consolidation of British hegemonic power. After an initial period of unrivalled dominance, Britain‘s monopolistic position as leader of modern sport eventually came under serious assault. Britain‘s historical sporting supremacy—similar to her imperial and economic power in general—was relative, not absolute; a position predicated more on the weaknesses of her opponents rather than her own strengths. Like the example of industrialization, a ―catch-up‖ phenomenon quickly occurred. As foreign nations gained experience and established sporting institutions and customs of their own, free from the restraints of Victorian notions of ―true‖ amateurism and often with direct governmental assistance, British prowess diminished at an alarming rate. Perceiving an unwelcome deterioration in their country‘s relative position as a military, economic, imperial, and sporting power, the predominantly elite and politically conservative members of the British Olympic Association (BOA) naturally embraced the Olympic Games as a platform for promoting British interests. Throughout the two decades following the establishment of the BOA in 1905, Britain‘s Olympic leaders pursued an administrative policy designed to stem the tide of British decline, both iii perceived and real. Within the framework of the Olympic movement, BOA chiefs fought bitterly to maintain a sporting union with Ireland, endeavored to foster a greater sense of imperial identity with her white dominions, and even undertook an ambitious policy of athletic specialization designed to reverse the nation‘s waning fortunes in international sport. The BOA‘s nation-building efforts faced strong opposition in the face of political squabbling between the constituent parts of the British Isle, the rising political independence of the dominions, and unwavering British public and governmental aversion to the Olympic Games. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS Page PREFACE viii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS xi Introduction: An Indifferent Beginning ....................................................................1 Olympic Heritage ................................................................................................................. 2 A Modern Olympic Revival .................................................................................................. 8 The First Modern Olympic Games ........................................................................................ 15 A Struggle for Survival ......................................................................................................... 20 British Olympic Association ................................................................................................. 24 Chapter One: Lighting the Olympic Flame ................................................................31 Making the British Team ....................................................................................................... 33 Onwards to Athens ................................................................................................................ 37 The 1906 Intermediate Games............................................................................................... 40 Erin Go Brάgh ...................................................................................................................... 42 A United‖ Kingdom?

A Comparison of Physical Education in Germany and America From the Years 1860-1930. (1963) Directed by: Dr. Rosemary McGee pp:82 A comparison was made of the development of the physical education movement in Germany and America from i860 to 1930. This writer believes that American physical education and German Leibeserziehung are reflections of the political and social attitudes of these two countries. A study was made of the political situation of both countries during this era. The rich cultural heritage and the uneducated political attitude of the Germans were strikingly different from the democracy of the common man in America and the American individualism which were creating a new culture. Socially the current in Germany flowed with the authoritative leaders and was mirrored in the literature. The literature included the extremes of the spirit of the humanity of Goethe to the Germanity of Jahn.
