Historians in recent years have paid considerable attention to
sport and leisure in the past, and historians of education are no
exception. The chapters in this book showcase the breadth and depth
of scholarship in this area, bringing new perspectives to bear on
the history of physical education in several different European
countries. Ranging from schoolgirl cricket in early postwar England
to the varying approaches to physical education in the
nineteenth-century Netherlands, the contributions all emphasise the
importance of physical education to wider conceptions of education
for citizenship. A number of chapters tackle issues in gender
history, while others focus on the effects - often unintended - of
policy-makers and the conflicts that could arise from the
imposition of new physical education curricula. Covering England,
Scotland, France, Germany, the Netherlands and Greece, this book
features the work of both established and emerging scholars, and is
an important contribution to the historiography of both education
and sport. This book was originally published as a special issue of
History of Education.
