The Historical Evolution of Violence in Competitive Sport: From Ancient Athletics to Modern Sport
Abstrct
This paper investigates the historical evolution of violence in competitive sports by examining its development and transformation over time. It begins with an exploration of the origins of violence in ancient sporting events, analysing the cultural and societal factors that contributed to its prevalence. The study then traces the gradual shift towards more regulated and controlled sports during the medieval and Renaissance periods, culminating in the establishment of modern sports in the 19th and 20th centuries. Additionally, it discusses the impact of this evolution on athletes' physical and mental well-being, as well as the ethical considerations related to the promotion of aggressive behaviour in sports. Through a comprehensive analysis of the historical development of violence in competitive sports, this paper illuminates the changing attitudes towards sportsmanship and fair play throughout history.

The advent of cinema brought with it its use as a propaganda device with which to transmit ideals and doctrines. As a result, newsreels and cinema documentaries were born with the aim of showing the «most relevant» news of the country and abroad, the former with a shorter duration. In this study, the Spanish NO-DO and «Sucesos Argentinos» are used as primary sources to interpret the images and imaginaries that were projected between 1943 and 1955 on female physical culture. The intention is to understand the official discourse of both political regimes on what Argentinean and Spanish society should be like, especially by questioning those meanings about women. In total, 69 issues of NO-DO and 14 editions of «Sucesos Argentinos» have been found which aim to show female physical culture in this period. The female physical culture shown in both newsreels was aimed at strengthening women’s bodies so that they could carry out their «natural functions» (mother, wife, housewife), as well as highlighting their «inferiority» in relation to men through lower impact activities and the homogenization of bodies through clothing, and the performance of the same exercises in synchrony. And all this in countries with different regimes, but which, in the end, coincided.
