Roller Derby - Michella M. Marino - Bog - University of Texas Press - Plusbog.dk

Roller Derby - Michella M. Marino - Bog - University of Texas Press - Plusbog.dk

Since 1935, roller derby has thrilled fans and skaters with its constant action, hard hits, and edgy attitude. However, though its participants' athleticism is undeniable, roller derby has never been accepted as a "real" sport. Michella M. Marino, herself a former skater, tackles the history of a sport that has long been a cultural mainstay for one reason both utterly simple and infinitely complex: roller derby has always been coed. Richly illustrated and drawing on oral histories, archival materials, media coverage, and personal experiences, Roller Derby is the first comprehensive history of this cultural phenomenon, one enjoyed by millions yet spurned by mainstream gatekeepers. Amid the social constraints of the mid-twentieth century, roller derby's emphasis on gender equality attracted male and female athletes alike, producing gender relations and gender politics unlike those of traditional sex-segregated sports. In an enlightening feminist critique, Marino considers how the promotion of pregnancy and motherhood by roller derby management has simultaneously challenged and conformed to social norms. Finally, Marino assesses the sport's present and future after its resurgence in the 2000s.

Performing Endurance - Lara Shalson - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

Performing Endurance - Lara Shalson - Bog - Cambridge University Press - Plusbog.dk

In Performing Endurance, Lara Shalson offers a new way of understanding acts of endurance in art and political contexts. Examining a range of performances from the 1960s to the present, including influential performance art works by Marina Abramović, Chris Burden, Tehching Hsieh, Linda Montano, Yoko Ono, and others, as well as protest actions from the lunch counter sit-ins of the US civil rights movement to protest camps in the twenty-first century, this book provides a formal account of endurance and illuminates its ethical and political significance. Endurance, Shalson argues, raises vital questions about what it means to exist as a body that both acts and is acted upon, from ethical questions about how we respond to the bodies of others to political questions about how we live in relation to institutions that shape life in fundamental ways. In addition, Performing Endurance rethinks how performance itself endures over time.

Empire Roller Disco - - Bog - Anthology Editions - Plusbog.dk

Empire Roller Disco - - Bog - Anthology Editions - Plusbog.dk

"...Pagnano’s photographs remind us of the importance of documenting moments as they occur so that we can savour the pleasures of the past and look at the present with fresh eyes." - Huck Brooklyn’s Empire Rollerdrome opened its doors in 1941 and soon became the borough’s premier destination for recreational and competitive roller skating. But it wasn’t until the late 1970s that the celebrated rink reached iconic status by replacing its organist with a live DJ, installing a state of the art sound and light system, and renaming itself after the nationwide dance craze it had helped to originate: the Empire Roller Disco was born. In 1980, Forbesmagazine sent the acclaimed street photographer Patrick D. Pagnano to document the Empire and its legendary cast of partygoers. The resulting photographs, gathered in TK for the first time, capture the vibrant spirits, extraordinary styles, and sheer joys of Brooklyn roller disco at its dizzying peak.

Endurance Sport and the American Philosophical Tradition - - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing Plc - Plusbog.dk

Endurance Sport and the American Philosophical Tradition - - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing Plc - Plusbog.dk

Endurance Sport and the American Philosophical Tradition, edited by Douglas R. Hochstetler, analyzes the relationship between endurance sports—such as running, cycling, and swimming–and themes from the American philosophical tradition. The contributors enter into dialogue with writers such as Ralph Waldo Emerson, William James, Henry David Thoreau, and John Dewey, as well as more recent scholars such as John McDermott and bell hooks. Examining American philosophical themes informs issues in endurance sport, and the experiential nature of endurance sport helps address philosophical issues and explain philosophical themes in American philosophy. The chapters bear witness to the fact that philosophy is not limited to abstract notions such as justice, truth, happiness, and so forth, but intersects with and has a bearing on our human endeavors of work and play. Furthermore, the themes centrally related to the American philosophical tradition align closely with the challenges and experiences present and faced by runners, cyclists, swimmers, and endurance athletes in general.

The Virtues of Endurance - - Bog - Oxford University Press Inc - Plusbog.dk

The Virtues of Endurance - - Bog - Oxford University Press Inc - Plusbog.dk

The virtues of endurance -- perseverance, patience, resilience, and constancy -- are central to success in any goal-oriented challenging activity that a person undertakes. Gaining a rich understanding of these virtues requires insights from multiple areas of study, but most treatments of the virtues of endurance to date have remained within narrow disciplinary boundaries. No longer. In this volume, philosophers, psychologists, legal scholars, educational theorists, medical practitioners, military theorists, and theologians have labored together to advance our understanding of endurance. Written with scholars in mind, this volume is nevertheless accessible to students and general readers. This volume is divided into two sections: Explorations and Applications. The first section considers the nature of a given virtue, while the second section showcases the relevance of endurance to important areas of our lives. Taken as a whole, this volume provides a comprehensive overview of this ever-important virtue, offering both a theoretical and practical roadmap to working through challenging activities.
