Paperback. Zustand: New. 36 original essays on sports media and culture Sports are frequently romanticized as a pure escape from the daily grind, but in reality, the stadium is a mirror reflecting our most contentious cultural and political battles. How to Watch Sports disrupts the comfortable narrative of passive entertainment, presenting thirty-six original essays that challenge readers to critically engage with the global phenomenon of sports media.

Structured to guide readers through the nuances of form, social representation, industrial practice, and evolving technology, the book demonstrates how media shapes our understanding of athleticism. Whether analyzing the colonial implications of the Olympics or Simone Biles' advocacy for mental health, the authors provide the tools necessary to decode the messages behind the spectacle.

Gebundene Ausgabe. Zustand: Neu. Via Media Publishing was founded in 1992 in order to produce the peer reviewed quarterly Journal of Asian Martial Arts (1992-2012)-the first publication of its kind to focus on martial traditions in an academic format. Many of the authors were scholar-practitioners, who utilized their unique talents to present articles from various specializations, such as Asian Studies, kinesiology, history, anthropology, philosophy, and physical education. Those who were serious about this field subscribed to the journal to read articles noted for their high academic and aesthetic standards. Most were in the United States, Canada, and Europe, but also in other areas of the world. These naturally included martial art schools and individual practitioners. There was a strong base among university and public libraries too. As founder of Via Media, I've decided to assemble this anthology of articles relating to taijiquan. There are over three hundred million taiji practitioners worldwide, drawn to the art mainly for health maintenance and it therapeutic value. Researchers can benefit from this handy anthology, particularly for the information and analyses presented, including the rich bibliographic listings. Taiji practitioners will also gain insights to benefit their own practice, be it for health and/or self-defense. Included here are sixty-four articles, the same number of hexagrams in the Book of Changes (Yijing). In addition to 735 illustrations, there are glossaries, maps, charts, and bibliographies. Taijiquan is the term representing the general category of study, but taijiquan can be subdivided into its branches, from the original Chen Family Style to highly popular Yang Family Style. Other lineages are presented, such as the Wu and Sun systems.The variety of material in this anthology reflects in-depth scholarly research and the experience of master practitioners. It will be a valuable source taijiquan enthusiasts for futures decades. By making this book available to individuals and libraries, we hope this rare material will greatly contribute to further research in this field and inspire many to learn taijiquan with aspirations to mastery.
