Table of ContentsReviews“This work makes a valuable contribution to the study of the history and cultural representation of French sport by bringing together chapters on a variety of sports and literary forms that interrogate the relationship between sport and literature.” Jonathan Ervine, Bangor University 'As the editors explain in the introduction, the title “Pour le Sport” is a French expression meaning “merely for the pleasure of performing it, and that no practical object is involved”... But in the best essays here the issues and texts explored actually do both–they provide pleasure while also achieving the “practical objects” of analysis, insight, and provocation.' Dave Buchanan, MacEwan University Author InformationRoxanna Curto is an Associate Professor of French and Spanish at the University of Iowa. Rebecca Wines is an Associate Professor of French and Co-Chair of Gender, Sexuality, and Women's Studies at Cornell College. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
