摘　　要：从概念史视角对体育概念进行谱系性分析。荷马时代的体育代表着高贵,是英雄的象征;古希腊城邦时期,体育从作为公民身份的标志与公民教育的内容,演变成为一种谋生的工具;在中世纪,体育从彰显暴力的比武大赛,最终演变为一种文明化、仪式化的表演;现代体育伴随着工业革命与启蒙运动的兴起,呈现为人的自由。"体育"一词尽管是从日本传入我国的,但我国近代体育内容表现为欧美体育的属性。对体育概念演变分析,目的是防止一种单性的理解。This essay analyzes the concept of sports from the perspective of conceptual history.In Homeric era,sports was a symbol of nobility and heroes whereas Ancient Greek City-state sports symbolized the identity of public citizens and then evolved into a way to educate and make a living.In the middle ages,sports evolved from violent competition to a civilized and ritualized performance.The rise of industrial revolution and the Enlightenment characterized modern sports with human freedom.Although‘sport'as a vocabulary entered China from Japan,Chinese sports share the common features with European and American Sports.The analysis of the evolution of the concept of sports helps to prevent a one- sided understanding of sports.
