TL;DR: Schwarzenegger is right: as a product of the nineteenth century, bodybuilding?the practice of putting highly defined musculature on public display?drew its initial context and much of its validation from the ancient world.
Abstract: Classicists may query any definition of a Greek ideal of physical culture that regards ancient athletics as a "celebration of the human body" pure and simple. They see Greek athletics rather as a social institution of the ancient city-state, which fully integrated the aesthetic ideal of the beautifully formed male physique (the kalos), with the moral and political ideal of the good male citizen (the agathos)} Yet, in another respect, Schwarzenegger is right. As a product of the nineteenth century, bodybuilding?the practice of putting highly defined musculature on public display?drew its initial context and much of its validation from the ancient world.

TL;DR: This falsified and yet, as I will later demonstrate, not falsified quotation should serve as a first hint of what I am trying to deal with in this discourse as mentioned in this paper. But to acknowledge a fake as fake contributes only to the triumph of accountants.
Abstract: This falsified and yet, as I will later demonstrate, not falsified quotation should serve as a first hint of what I am trying to deal with in this discourse. Anyway, to acknowledge a fake as fake contributes only to the triumph of accountants. Why am I doing this, you might ask? The reason is simple and comes not from theoretical, but rather from practical, considerations. With this quotation as a prefix I elevate [erheben] the spectator, before he has even seen the first frame, to a high level, from which to enter the film. And I, the author of the film, do not let him descend from this height until it is over. Only in this state of sublimity [Erhabenheit] does something deeper become possible, a kind of truth that is the enemy of the merely factual. Ecstatic truth, I call it.

TL;DR: For example, if Schopenhauer... posited a general depression as the tragic condition, if he suggested to the Greeks (who to his annoyance did not "resign themselves"? ) that they had not attained the highest view of the world, that is parti pris, logic of a system, counterfeit of a systemsatizer: one of those dreadful counterfeits that ruined SchopenHauer's whole psychology, step by step ( arbitrarily and violently, he misunderstood genius, art itself, morality, pagan reli gion, beauty, knowledge, and more
