Full textKnown universally as ‘Restorer of the Olympic Games’, Pierre de Coubertin is an end-of-century social and educational reformer who fancies he can weigh on the destinies of France and the world by forging a new elite. The present intellectual and sportive biography questions his political neutrality and dismantles the myth of Olympic perpetuation. By bringing in sports into the Ecole Monge, then making sure they will spread to all lycées, he tries to invent a new-fangled sociological group that will transcend all the social hierarchies produced by the industrial revolution: the chivalry of sportsmen. The French Tory will be recruited in the middle-classes, down to the latest strata, provided the candidate behaves as a sportsman combining bravery, loyalty, distinction and good manners. Having rejoined the Republic as soon as 1887, close to the French liberals, then the Republican Federation Party, hardly understood or followed, he ends up taking refuge in an extreme-centre political swamp, which leads him to a kind of self banishment. Never has he managed to control the Olympic Games which, as soon as 1892, he had imagined International and pacifistic. Against nations and States, against organisers of shows and budding international sports federations, he forges ‘Olympism’ between 1906 and 1914. Conceived as a rampart against money, women and crowds, this sporting utopia is also a uchronia which evokes the feudal ages more than an ancient Greek stadium. Heading against the mainstream of the twentieth century, forced to resign from the IOC in 1925, Pierre de Coubertin has failed to understand both the violence of World War I and the lethal oppression of hitlerism

Full textThe abundance of the thought of Pierre de Coubertin went unnoticed for long, he is just present in fact in the official speeches of the Olympic Games, whereas he has put forward an educational reform the actuality of which remains. If China has provided a considerable effort for the organization of the Games in 2008, unfortunately Coubertin himself stays entirely misunderstood, not any monograph about him has been carried out. The Olympic spirit is the philosophical base on which Coubertin tries to rest his works, it is also the concentrate of his principal ideas. In spite of its cultural dissimilarities from the occidental world, China is predisposed to the diffusion of the thought of Coubertin. The quintessence of the Olympic spirit, that is the spirit of chivalry, the cult of beauty, comes within the movement of Chinese tradition. They have been praised, nourished since more than two thousand years by all of the philosophical schools and Chinese religions. Making bloom in China the sportsmanship of Coubertin, it is in fact to honor the Chinese chivalrous spirit. The peaceful and imbued with a country culture Chinese people, often appears as spineless and confined despite its radiant chivalrous history. In 1889, Coubertin launched his slogan : “an educational rebronzing” (“un rebronzage pédagogique”), aiming at developing the whole man, that is to say his physique, his intellect and his morality, by means of sports. More than one hundred and twenty years have passed, it’s time for Chinese people to reply to this call. Be a sportsman, be a knight !

Full textIn 1925; the founder-president of the international olympic committee, Pierre de Coubertin, resigned from his office in favour of the Belgian, Henri de Baillet-Latour. By the time, the accumulating power of the sports international federations threatened the monopolistic power of the I. O. C. Furthermore, the professionalization of sports began to make Olympic values obsolete. Baillet-Latour thus inherited an all the more fragile I. O. C. So that the transmission of poweris a potential moment of institutional instability. Nevertheless, at the end of his presidency, he could boast of having sharply strengthened the power of the C. I. O. In the world sports movement : the number athletes in the Olympic Games did not stop increasing whereas the Olympic program counted more and more sports federations. Underlining Coubertin's authoritarianism, the historians generally present Baillet-Latour as a more democratic president. Yhe existence of the new executive committee played a foremost role towards the better distribution of power within the committee. However, the internationalisation of the members of the I. O. C. And the difficulties of transpoet and communication complicate the daily management of this crumbled power. This present thesis is devoted to the study of the distribution of powers within the I. O. C. And to the means set up by the president to establish the Olympic monopoly firmly on the world athletic movment. The first hypothesis is based on the return of an autocratic presidential power and that of the weakened executive committee. The second hypothesis envisages a multifarious use of Olympic values by the leaders of the I. O. C. The study of the internal functioning of the committee, the evolution of Olympic values, the conflicts with the international federations and the preparation of the Olympic Games of Berlin in 1936 shows the particularities of the internal cogs of the Olympic institution under Henri de Baillet-Latour's presidency

Full textCoubertin wished to organize the first games of the modern era in Paris in 1900, within the framework of, or in connection with, the World Fair. But from January 1894, Alfred Picard, the World Fair General Commissioner, rejected his proposal, rather choosing to organize physical exercises and sport competitions, thus depriving Coubertin of the supports who would have allowed him to organize Olympic Games. Therefore the only solution left for the IOC President was to keep up appearances, in order to ensure the survival of the rising Olympic movement. He made it so well that the myth of the 1900 Olympic Games still goes on, a myth preserved by the IOC itself. The purpose of this thesis is to separate fact from fiction about the so-called 1900 “Olympic Games” which n fact never occurred

Full textThe Olympic idea as it was developed by Pierre de Coubertin happens to be a project whose aim was to rebuild a democratic political history of physical education from 1892 to 1920. Anchored in the era of industrial revolutions and of the birth of the nation-State, this heuristic work aims at describing a process of actions in the creation of an exemplary citizen. Such a mission was accomplished thanks to the important charisma of a man, Pierre de Coubertin, who was also the father of the idea and an ideologist thanks to his network of acquaintances. The cultural and sporting practices that were created were spread through diverse concepts (sush as sociability, networks, power relations and democracy) both with the Games and the IOC. This study mixes different sources so as to reveal the process that was linked to Pierre de Coubertin's work in three complementary indicators. First, the success of this specific idea is due to the originator's personality and very life, whose network of acquaintances was decisive. Then Pierre de Coubertin federated international actors by relying on a group of men - those who were co-opted in the IOC - so as to create a group identity within the comittee. Indeed, the Committee possesses politicaln educational, sporting and social specificities that helped to spread the message within international geographic spaces. To finish, Pierre de Coubertin endeavored to promote his model by taking advantage from the modernity and the strength of the democratic spaces that were then launching into a "race to progress and to recognition". Our work uses these three logics to understand the birth of the olympic idea worldwide from 1892 to 1896, its development between 1897 and 1914 and eventually its en 1920 to make room for sports show

Pierre de Coubertin (1863-1937) is recognized as the “Savior” of the Modern Olympic Games. His special contribution contains two major parts: first, he modernized and revived the games, and led the International Olympic Committee for almost 30 years; second, he designed the blueprint and vision of the games by promoting “Olympism”. Therefore, if we want to delve into the early history of the games, it is crucial to figure out what he did, what he said, and what influenced him. This study intends to portray a historical picture of Olympism, especially focusing on its founder and his milieu. First chapter covers the background which motivated his social revolution. Second chapter highlights on the movements of modern sport, exhibitionary culture and revivalism, which not only represented mainstream cultural trends of 19 century, but also laid the basis of the modern Olympic Games. The underlying meaning of modern physical education, art and its historical positioning served as the core value of Olympism. Chapter 3 to 5, therefore, analyze these three pivotal points with regard to Olympism and its implementation. This study argues that the Modern Olympic Games and Olympism cannot be separated. Concerning that both are the result of actions taken by de Coubertin to revive the Olympic Games, equally important are their role in the Olympic movement. Ignoring either of them can lead to missing the whole picture of the process through which the Modern Olympic Games was founded. In this way, we can also see some different roles de Coubertin played in promoting the Olympic Movement.
