The Olympic games is a striking testimony to the influence which
ancient Greece still exercises over the modern world, and to the
important place which athletics occupied in the life of the Greeks.
Other nations may have given equal attention to the physical
education of the young; other nations may have been equally fond of
sport; other nations may have produced individual athletes,
individual performances equal or superior to those of the Greeks,
but nowhere can we find any parallel to the athletic ideal
expressed in the art and literature of Greece, or to the
extraordinary vitality of her athletic festivals. The growth of
this ideal, and the history of the athletic festivals, are the
subject of this book.
