He won 5 consecutive World Championships from 1948 to 1952. He was the only American to win the European Championships in 1948.

She has served as a television commentator in her sport for decades. Her award in Grenoble was the only gold medal that the U.S. Olympic team won in the 1968 Winter Games. In 1993, the Associated Press ranked her as the 3rd most popular athlete in America behind fellow Olympians Mary Lou Retton and Dorothy Hamill. Fleming's list of Hall of Fame placements, awards, United States, World and Olympic Championships is long and distinguished. What is most appealing is her spirit and persona. Her grace in life even excels her grace on ice. Peggy Fleming is a superstar for the ages. Basic Matrix - Peggy Fleming.

  • Figure Skating and the Anthropology of Dance: the Case of Oksana Domnina and Maxim Shabalin
    Andrée Grau: Figure Skating and the Anthropology of Dance: The Case of Oksana Domnina and Maxim Shabalin Figure Skating and the Anthropology of Dance: The Case of Oksana Domnina and Maxim Shabalin Andrée Grau Roehampton University, [email protected] Abstract In this paper, I address a number of topics relevant to anthropology generally and to the anthropology of dance specifically. I consider issues of classification and taxonomies; of interculturalism and transnationalism; of representation, exoticisation and internalised racism. I examine dance, hierarchies and discrimination, and discuss boundaries between dance and non-dance. For example, dance scholars, with a few exceptions, rarely write about figure skating, although it is cognate to Western theatre dance genres, especially ballet. Figure skating is sport, even in its ice dancing incarnation, whilst dance is art even in its ballet competition incarnations. I use as a case study the Russian skaters Oksana Domnina and Maxim Shabalin, who choreographed an ‘Australian Aboriginal Dance’ for their original routine for the 2010 European skating championships and Olympics. This offended Aboriginal elders who made a complaint to the Russian ambassador. I examine the controversy around the routine, how it was reported in the press and how the audience responded in Internet forums, focusing especially on the way Australian Aborigines con- tinue to be portrayed as stone age in popular media. KEY WORDS: aesthetics, Australian Aborigines, ballet, Internet forums, dance, ice ska- ting, taxonomies Introduction One of the premises of the anthropology of dance, is that the term ‘dance’ is problematic as it carries preconceptions of what this activity engages with, which is rooted into a Western way of understanding the body in space and time, situating it in a particular relationship to a soundscape.

  • 1 Sample Outline with Notecards I. Introduction A. Attention Grabber Title
    1 Sample Outline with Notecards This outline includes all the notecards to show you how each notecard is like a puzzle piece of your paper. Notice that tags and page/paragraph number are included on every notecard. You MUST have a paraphrase on each card; direct quotations are optional. Quote cards should include a draft sentence in which you practice working the quote into your paper. Including your in-text citations as you write is easy when you have all the necessary information on each notecard. Don’t print this sample – it’s 36 pages!! I. Introduction A. Attention Grabber Title: it wasn't always easy for women Source: Wickham, M. (1997). Superstars of women's track & field. Philadelphia, PA: Chelsea House. http://dx.doi.org/0791043940 Pages: 6 Tags: 2 quote, today Direct Quote: The only thing keeping an athlete back is the limitations of her body and her ability to dream. Paraphrase: Today, many people take women in track and field for granted. Today, there is not much, if not any, discrimination or regulations against women competing on the track. Today, "the only thing keeping an athlete back is the limitations of her body and her ability to dream" (Wickham, 1997, p. 6). But this wasn't always the case for women. They had to fight for what we have today. B. Thesis Statement: American women have evolved significantly in their rights for being able to compete in track and field in the Olympics, starting with their struggles as early as ancient Greece. Once they have gained their right to compete in 1928, the years leading to today have shown an increase in women's rights and they have been able to reshape the image of track and field.
