		Given the boom in sports at the end of the 19th century, he publicly proposed in 1892 the revival of the Olympic Games, with the double objective of sports competition and peaceful gathering of all nations.
		The restoration of the myth of Olympia was not only a program of education through sport or a pacifist manifesto for international coexistence, but also a return to pagan "religion" of the body.
		The Olympics in fact preserve a quasi-religious ritualism: the Olympic oath, the parade-procession of countries, the lighting of the Olympic flame (by vestal virgins in the ancient altar to Hera in Olympia), and the relay race with the Olympic flame, which recalls a Greek race with torches, considered to be of profound liturgical value.

	Prologue
		Though Pheidippides was certainly not the runner who carried the news of Greek victory to Athens, and though it seems unlikely that any professional foot courier of ancient Greece would have perished after such a run, the legend took hold, and out of that legend grew the modern marathon race.
		In 1892, he hosted a banquet for the Union of French Athletic Sports Clubs, a group he had founded five years earlier.
		On the program, after several topics concerning amateurism and sports, he listed "Reestablishment of the Olympic Games." The congress was not to discuss whether to revive the Olympics, but rather how it should be done.
