    Cristiandad Muscular y Asociación Cristiana de Jóvenes: la llegada del deporte a las colonias valdenses del Uruguay
    (2018) MALÁN, Paula
    In the second half of the nineteenth century, during the Victorian era of the British Empire, there arose, within the Anglican church, the movement called Muscular Christianity. This movement finds in sports practice the material support to promote and establish a new culture or modern corporalethos, christian, masculine and muscular. Thegentleman-amateurEnglish man embodies the image of the new bourgeoisethosthat rapidly expands through English society and its colonies, and into the rest of the secular world, shaping the way in which modern states conceive the body and body education. This work explores the foundation of this discursive process, its link with the Young Men's Christian Association, and its arrival in the Waldensian colonies of Uruguay.
