During the Paris Olympic Games of July 1924, there were a series of 'incidents' in the fencing competition that became known as the Puliti affair. At the centre of the troubles was the Italian Oreste Puliti. The 'affair' had to be discussed by the 'jury d'honneur' recently set up by the IOC. Both the IOC and the International Federation were concerned with this issue for four more years. This article uses the Puliti affair to discuss several aspects of nationalism in the mid-1920s: the growing tensions between Fascist Italy and democracies such as Hungary and France, the specific Olympic status of fencing challenged in Paris after three centuries of confrontation between the French and Italian schools of fencing, and ongoing tensions between the IOC and the international federations. Finally, the press perceptions of the incident in various countries are briefly discussed. |
