  • Olympic Culture in Soviet Uzbekistan 1951-1991: International Prestige and Local Heroes
    Olympic Culture in Soviet Uzbekistan 1951-1991: International Prestige and Local Heroes Sevket Akyildiz Introduction Uzbekistan was officially established in 1924 by the victorious Bolsheviks as part of a larger union-wide „Soviet people‟ building project. To legitimate and consolidate Moscow‟s rule the southern, largely Muslim, Asian territories (including Uzbekistan) were reorganized under the national delimitation processes of the 1920s and 1930s. Establishing the Soviet republics from the territory formerly known as Turkestan was based upon language, economics, history, culture and ethnicity. Soviet identity building was a dual process fostering state-civic institutions and identity and local national (ethnic) republic identity and interests. The creation of the national republics was part of the Soviet policy of multiculturalism best described a mixed-salad model (and is similar to the British multicultural society model). (Soviet ethnographers termed ethnicity as nationality.) Uzbekistan is situated within Central Asia, a region that the Russians term “Middle Asia and Kazakhstan” – some Western authors also term it “Inner Asia”. Uzbekistan stretches south-east from the Aral Sea towards the Pamir Mountains, and shares borders with Afghanistan (137km), Kazakhstan (2,203km), Kyrgyzstan (1,099km), Tajikistan (1,161km), and Turkmenistan (1,161km). The climate is continental, with hot summers and cold winters. The Uzbeks are a Turkic-speaking people largely Turkic (and Mongol) by descent - and predominately Sunni (Hanafi) Muslim by religious practice. Between 1917 and 1985 the population of Uzbekistan rose from approximately 5 million to 18 million people. However, Uzbekistan was a Soviet multicultural society, and during the Soviet period it contained more than 1.5 million Russian settlers and also included Karakalpaks, Kazakhs, Tajik, Tatars, and several of Stalin‟s deported peoples.

  • Ginnastica Artistica
    LA GINNASTICA ARTISTICA Ilenia Federica La ginnastica artistica è una disciplina della ginnastica e uno sport olimpico. L'atleta deve essere dotato di forza, velocità ed elevata mobilità articolare. Alcuni elementi, quelli principali, come la verticale, possono essere appresi anche in età adulta. STORIA DELLA GINNASTICA ARTISTICA La ginnastica artistica è uno sport dalle origini molto antiche.Le culture più importanti che la praticarono sono quella Cinese, quella Egizia e quella Micenea. Per quanto riguarda i Greci, la ginnastica fu prima praticata dai Dori. Però gli antichi avevano un altro concetto di ginnastica artistica: essi non la intendevano praticata con gli attrezzi, bensì basata sugli esercizi che corrispondono all'attuale atletica leggera, alla lotta, al pugilato. I Romani non accettavano la ginnastica perché la ritenevano propria degli schiavi o degli stranieri. Solo dopo il Mille la cultura fisica riacquistò importanza. Nel XIX secolo, F.L. Jhan inaugurò a Berlino la prima palestra pubblica all'aperto. Egli consigliò vari esercizi sulla corsa e sul salto, poi introdusse l'uso degli attrezzi, tra cui quattro femminili e sei maschili. In comune ne hanno due: il corpo libero e il volteggio. - CORPO LIBERO Il corpo libero (floor, FX) maschile prevede una serie di esercizi senza accompagnamento musicale o coreografia, a differenza di quello femminile. Si svolge su una pedana quadrata ampia 12x12 metri, con un metro di sicurezza intorno. - VOLTEGGIO Nel volteggio (valut, VT) il ginnasta corre lungo il tumbling che è lungo 25 metri, salta su una pedana posizionata davanti alla tavola e dopo aver appoggiato le mani sull'attrezzo esegue il volteggio vero e proprio.

Variables which are used was divid- ed in two parts: type of the jumps (2, 3, 4, 5) and rotation (180°, 360°, 540°, 720°, 900°). Type of jumps was: 2=Handsprings, 3=Tsukahara, 4=Yurchenko, 5= Half-turn entry. Differences between the Olympic Games in type of jumps and rotations were calculated by T-test for in- dependent samples and Mann-Whitney U Test for independent sample. Results of Mann- Whitney U Test have shown that at the level of statistical significance of p<,05 that there were differences between the Olympic Games in variable rotation. It seems that today´s vault is performed with much more rotation around longitudinal (LA) axis of the body, and around transversal it seems that they are the same despite the new vault table.
