Summary | "Les sports à la mode" by Camille Meillac is a comprehensive exploration of sports written in the late 19th century. The work delves into various athletic activities, discussing their history, development, and overall significance in society. It reflects the rising interest in physical fitness and leisure during this period, particularly focusing on popular games and sports in France and their roots in antiquity. The opening of the book begins with a definition of sports, emphasizing their role as physical exercises that also cultivate moral qualities through enjoyment. It traces the history of sports from ancient times, starting with humans engaging in combat training and evolving to formalized athletic competitions in Greece and Rome. The narrative recounts the evolution of sports across different cultures, highlighting notable games and their cultural significance, leading into a discussion of sports in contemporary France, where traditional activities have given way to a more structured and rational approach to modern sports.
