国际奥委会第二任主席：顾拜旦 Pierre de Coubertin

顾拜旦让奥林匹克运动变成了现实

第二届国际奥委会主席勒巴龙·皮埃尔·顾拜旦（Pierre de Coubertin、法国）的故居在法国的诺曼底省的米尔维勒城堡，古堡的门口有一块牌子，上面写着现代奥运之父、教育家、历史学家皮埃尔·顾拜旦：1863—1937。

1863年1月1日顾拜旦出生在巴黎乌堤诺街66号，一个非常富有的贵族家庭。青年时期的顾拜旦曾就读于巴黎的政治科学学院，他热爱竞技体育，擅长曲棍球和足球。作为一个历史学者对古希腊文化的浓厚兴趣，深入研究，使他对古希腊体育和奥运会有了深厚的了解。他在后来的回忆录中写道："在古希腊的历史上，没有任何事物给我的触动比奥林匹克更为强烈。"顾拜旦决心要恢复已经消失了15个世纪的奥林匹克运动会。

1891年28岁的顾拜旦创办了体育评论杂志，接着他又遍访欧美诸国，游说各界人士，宣传复兴奥林匹克的思想，顾拜旦还是世界上第一个骑摩托车的人，当时顾拜旦家庭内部没有任何阻碍，比方说顾拜旦的夫人，在性格上不是一个很随和的女性，但她在这个事情上，对顾拜旦的支持是无条件的，他在外界碰到了许多困难，经济方面的、社会方面的以及宗教方面的。当时顾拜旦是抛弃家财去进行这个工作，最后是在穷困潦倒中去世，他的这种思想在当时是太超前了，我们现在很难想象他当时碰以的困难的艰苦性，顾拜旦曾经写了一个回忆录，题目就叫《奥林匹克回忆》，回顾了他为了实现自己的理想，在21年中的艰苦奋斗。

1894年6月，国际奥林匹克委员会在巴黎索邦大学宣告成立，由于第一届奥运 会将在希腊的雅典进行，所以希腊人维克拉斯出任国际奥委会的第一任主席，顾 拜旦出任秘书长，1896年顾拜旦出任国际奥委会主席，他在这个位置上干了近三十年，直到1925年。他认为体育是很重要的手段，同时历史也具有非常的重要性，研究历史、了解历史、了解别人，我们不能仅仅知道本民族什么时候战胜别人的历史，必须去了解他人，了解他人对顾拜旦来说其重要性在于避免战争，如果各民族相互之间经常协商讨论的话那么他们就不会去打仗，而且奥林匹克本身也是历史，奥林匹克是从历史渊源而生的。

现任国际奥委会主席萨马兰奇认为顾拜旦的伟大功绩在于将体育运动提高到具有普遍价值的高度，并赋予奥林匹克运动发展的理论和实践。为了维持奥运会的正常运作，顾拜旦本人无偿投入了大量的资金，到后来他不得不变卖了自己的家产，晚年的顾拜旦过着非常清贫拮据的生活。顾拜旦使原来古希腊各个城邦之间的举行的古奥运会变成了今天全世界大部分国家和地区都可以参加的现代奥林 匹克运动，同时他一生所倡导的奥林匹克精神和宗旨也在国际交往中发挥着无以替代的作用和影响力，顾拜旦实现了自己的梦想，1937年9月2日，顾拜旦在日内瓦公园散步，坐在一张长椅上猝然长逝，享年74岁。

Pierre de Coubertin President of the IOC from 1896 to 1925: Pierre de Coubertin

Pierre de Frédy, Baron de Coubertin was born on 1 January 1863 at 20, rue Oudinot in Paris. Very early in life he showed a liking for literature, history and the problems of education and sociology. Giving up the army, abandoning too the political career that was open to him at the age of twenty-four, Pierre de Coubertin decided to launch a vast movement of educational reform, and at twenty-five his life work was started.

It is also to him that we owe all the organisation of the Olympic Games, which have benefited from his methodical and precise mind, and from his wide understanding of the aspirations and needs of young people. The Olympic Charter and Protocol, as well as the athletes' oath are his work, together with the ceremonial for the opening and closing of the Games. Furthermore, until 1925 he personally presided over the International Olympic Committee.

The title of Honorary President of the Olympic Games was bestowed on him in 1925 until his death in 1937. It was decided that no other President would ever be granted this honour again. The revival of the Olympic Games represents only a small part of the Baron de Coubertin's work. Apart from numerous publications devoted to the technique and teaching of sport, he was the author of important historial, political and sociological studies. His works total over sixty thousand pages.

He died on 2 September 1937 in Geneva having spent his entire fortune on his ideals. He is considered one of the great men of the 20th century. In accordance with his last wishes, his heart was interred at Olympia (Greece), in the marble monument commemorating the revival of the Olympic Games.

Answer 3

Pierre Frédy, Baron de Coubertin, was born in Paris in 1863. His family originated in Normandy where he spent many of his summers in the family Château de Mirville, near Le Havre. He refused the military career planned for him by his family, as well as renouncing a promising political career. By the age of 24 he had already decided the aim of his life: he would help bring back the noble spirit of France by reforming its old-fashioned and unimaginative education system. Coubertin, whose father was an artist and mother a musician, was raised in cultivated and aristocratic surroundings. He had always been deeply interested in questions of education. For him, education was the key to the future of society, and he sought the means to make France rise once more after its defeat in the war in 1870.

Coubertin was a very active sportsman and practiced the sports of boxing, fencing, horse-riding and rowing. He was convinced that sport was the springboard for moral energy and he defended his idea with rare tenacity. It was this conviction that led him to announce at the age of 31 that he wanted to revive the Olympic Games. He made this announcement in a meeting at the Union of French Societies of Athletic Sports (USFSA), for which he was Secretary General. No one really believed him and his statement was greeted with little enthusiasm.
