  • Invisible Lines in the Sand: LA's Ban on Bathing Suits in the 1910S1
    Invisible Lines in the Sand: LA’s Ban on Bathing Suits in the 1910s1 Elsa Devienne Translated from the French by Oliver Waine Can beaches reveal the tensions that run through society at a given moment in time? Here, Elsa Devienne shows how Californian beaches in the early 20th century crystallized tensions resulting from the gradual rejection of Victorian values and exposed, via the way people presented their bodies, the changes under way with regard to moral order and American society. In the late 1910s, Los Angeles was the scene of a series of arrests of bathers and beachgoers. The individuals arrested, caught wearing bathing suits in the street, on streetcars, or in local stores, had infringed a municipal ordinance making it illegal to wear bathing suits in urban spaces. We are all familiar with the early-20th-century photographs2 showing police officers, in suits and ties and with measuring tapes in hand, checking the length of bathing suits deemed too short and revealing worn by female bathers emboldened by the erosion of Victorian standards of modesty. However, the real issues, in the case of the arrests considered here, lie elsewhere. Specifically, it was not merely a question of measuring the length of bathing suits and deciding whether or not they were legal, but rather of circumscribing the spatial boundaries beyond which a bathing suit could no longer be worn. Despite the significant controversy they generated in the local press, we actually know very little about arrests of this kind: historians have tended to focus on the rapidly shrinking bathing suits of the period, with the bathing dress of the early 20th century gradually giving way to the bikini, invented in 1946 (Sohn 2006; Granger 2008, 2009).

    ! ýý Qj /,/ /C)6 AN URBAN HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE: SWIMMING A RECREATIONAL AND COMPETITIVE PURSUIT 1840 TO 1914 by ALISON CLAIRE PARKER DEPARTMENT OF SPORTS STUDIES A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy UNIVERSITY OF STIRLING June 2003 o) ý ABSTRACT Over the last three decades or more, there has been a considerable interest in the socio-historical analysis of sport. While a number of historians have examined the development of the major team games and commercial sports in the context of the changing nature of Victorian and Edwardian society, very few have considered the development of individual and more recreational sports, or located the transformation of sport to the process of urbanization. This thesis examines the relationship between growing urbanization and the transformation of swimming from a recreative activity, into an urban recreation and 'modern' competitive sport. Swimming as a recreation and as a competitive sport, developed as a reaction to and consequence of, both the positive and negative features of urbanization. The hypotheses that the greater the urbanization, the more developed and 'modern' sport became, will be supported with evidence from the sport of swimming.

Forest glades, running brooks, a joy of scents and sounds I hope they never spoil it, just to make a buck Keep it just the way it is not housing run amuck Excerpt from poem by Ian Perkins, Broadbeach Gold Coast Bulletin 6 September 1979, p6 Invisible Landscapes… III ABSTRACT In most, if not all cultural landscapes there is a fascination with the visible landscape. Aesthetics are a primary carrier of meaning in the culture and identity of cities, however, reliance on what is visible to interpret the landscape denies substantive recognition of the complexity of meanings and values embedded in the landscape. If we are to gain a more rounded appreciation of cultural landscapes, we need to become better at complex perception to include consideration of the economic, social and political landscapes which are integral to the substance of the city.
