Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Before sport became entertainment, it was sacrifice, worship, warfare, glory, and a conversation with the gods.Across the ancient world, people gathered in sacred spaces to watch the human body tested before heaven, kings, ancestors, cities, and the dead. Runners raced beneath the eye of Zeus. Wrestlers fought in dust and oil. Chariots thundered around deadly turns. Gladiators faced the crowd in Rome's theatres of blood. Egyptian kings displayed divine strength through hunting, archery, rowing, and ritual running. Mesoamerican ball players entered stone courts that echoed with myth, kingship, sacrifice, and the movements of the cosmos.The Games of the Gods is a sweeping journey through the sacred history of ancient competition, revealing how sport once stood at the centre of religion, politics, public memory, and power.Inside this book, readers will discover: - The religious meaning behind the ancient Olympic Games- How Greek athletics honoured gods, heroes, cities, and the dead- The brutal beauty of wrestling, boxing, pankration, and chariot racing- The rise of Roman gladiators, animal hunts, executions, and imperial spectacle- The sacred ball courts of Mesoamerica and their connection to myth, kingship, and sacrifice- Egyptian contests of strength, archery, rowing, hunting, and royal renewal- Celtic and Norse feats of courage, honour, assembly, and warrior identity- The forgotten role of women as competitors, patrons, priestesses, spectators, and symbols of power- The prizes, crowns, songs, statues, and memories that allowed ancient victors to outlive death- The deep human reason crowds still gather to witness risk, triumph, pain, and gloryThis is the hidden history of sport before the modern stadium, before television, before medals became brands, and before competition was separated from the sacred.In the ancient world, a contest was never just a contest. It could honour the dead, please a god, prove a king's strength, discipline a warrior, thrill a crowd, or turn a mortal name into legend.The Games of the Gods uncovers the world behind the race, the fight, the ball court, the arena, and the roar of the crowd, where victory was memory, the body was an offering, and the gods were believed to be watching.…
