The course aims to observe sport as a total social fact. Sport seen as an essential element of culture and therefore analyzed with an anthropological perspective. Actions, narrations, visions, ways of communicating, languages can be observed with a "thick analysis” (Geertz), able to reveal the functioning of the society in question.
