Definition(s)

  • Ralph Waldo Emerson asserted that every institution is the lengthened shadow of a great man. If one substitutes “woman” for “man,” Emerson's assertion holds true for Alice Million Milliat (1884–1957) and the Fédération Sportive Féminine Internationale (FSFI), the organization that staged four successive Olympiques Féminins in the years 1922 through 1934.
