Sinossi

Victory Celebrations explores the profound role of societal celebrations, from sports championships to the end of wars, as powerful social rituals. These collective displays of joy are not mere outbursts but reflections of deeply ingrained cultural values and shapers of collective identity. Examining these celebrations offers insight into how societies reinforce social bonds and transmit cultural narratives. For instance, victory celebrations can solidify a new social order after political revolutions. The book delves into the historical evolution of these practices, revealing how religion, politics, and social structures have shaped celebratory rituals over time. It offers a structured approach, starting with the psychological and sociological underpinnings of victory celebrations. It progresses from examining sports, where celebrations reflect national identity, to exploring the complex emotions surrounding the end of conflicts and the ideals promoted by freedom movements. By analyzing a diverse range of historical accounts, sociological studies, and media analysis, Victory Celebrations challenges the conventional view of celebrations as superficial occurrences. It positions them as essential tools through which societies define themselves, highlighting their impact on political outcomes and their potential for both inclusion and exclusion. This interdisciplinary approach makes it uniquely valuable for understanding the hidden meanings and social functions of victory celebrations.

    The story of how soccer has transformed the world—as seen through nine World Cups—by one of our most talented writers on the sport. 
    The World Cup is the biggest sporting spectacle on Earth—a chance every four years for the greatest players to win international glory, and a month-long media event that's watched by an audience of billions.But the tournament has changed beyond recognition since the inaugural event in Montevideo, Uruguay, in July 1930. What was once a semi-professional meeting beset by haphazard play has evolved to become a game of multinational buyouts, dubious ethics, and questionable aims—and the new era of soccer has much to tell us about the globalized world.Simon Kuper is among the vanishingly small number of writers who have attended every World Cup since 1990. World Cup Dreams is his journey to find the heart of soccer, through the nine tournaments he's experienced first-hand—from watching matches in half-empty stands during Italia 1990 (a tournament that at times felt like a village fete) to witnessing the French triumph at home in 1998; South Africa's national dream in 2010; and the troubling legacy of Qatar in 2022.Told on the pitch, in the stands, in the pubs, and on the streets, this is the story of how soccer has changed the world.

    Cycling? It's one of my life's constants, it feeds my need for beauty, for delight and for aimless exploring . . . I hope to continue pedalling, nice and slowly, for the rest of my life, with the same curiosity that ignited my childhood.
    
    Twelve writers consider the joys and consolations of cycling, whether in a city late at night or along country lanes on a summer's day. Yara Rodrigues Fowler and Xani Byrne write movingly on coming to terms with loss through tandem biking; Jon McGregor takes part in the overnight Dunwich Dynamo. Annie Lord sings the praises of cycling home on Lime bikes from parties, while the late Dervla Murphy regales us with stories of a cycle through Europe.
    
    Freewheeling is a celebration of life on two wheels, and how bikes can become an extension of ourselves, a type of armour, and a route to liberation.
