    Abstract: This book argues that sport is not neutral, asocial or apolitical and so it needs to be assessed in its widest cultural context to be understood. It examines how sport is acted upon by these influences and creates influences of its own. The book provides a comprehensive survey of sport in Britain since 1945 and examines its place in British culture. It offers a critical introduction to existing literature on the subject and places contemporary sport in the context of recent history. The author discusses issues of politics, national identity, gender, class and race and explores representations of sport in the media. Sports covered include: football, rugby, tennis and polo

Kyle combines the words of ancient authors with current scholarly research and cross-cultural perspectives, as he explores* the origins and historical development of the games* who the victims were and why they were chosen* how the Romans disposed of the thousands of resulting corpses* the complex religious and ritual aspects of institutionalised violence* the particularly savage treatment given to defiant Christians.T
