Journal of Olympic History 1/2010

The first 2010 issue of the Journal of Olympic History is on its way. In the cover article, Karl Lennartz, Volker Kluge and Tony Bijkerk debate the nationality of Olympians and medallists in the early Olympic Games, when it was not always easy to make such decisions. Also in this issue:

  • The series on IOC members is continued, starting with member 56 (Baron von Willebrand) and ending with #75 (Count de Penha).
  • Bernhard Kramer and Richard Stanton, both authors of books on the Olympic art competition, unearth some “lost treasures” from these competitions, and will continue to do so in future issues.
  • More Olympic art in Pierre Gricius’ article about two unknown Luxembourg medallists, Jean Jacoby and Frantz Heldenstein.
  • Several more articles, as well as the usual book reviews, obituaries and letters from the board.
