Qatar Museums is proud to publish the first translation into Arabic of the writings of the father of the modern Olympic games, Pierre de Coubertin.
Throughout his career as co-founder of the International Olympic Committee and its second president, Coubertin produced articles that total more than 500 thousand words. His writings were compiled into a three-volume publication titled: Pierre De Coubertin, Textes Choises.
The launch of the first Arabic volume of this publication coincides with the Summer Olympics 2024 in Paris. The book is a testament to the profound connection Qatar has to Coubertin’s ideal of making the world a better place through sport and represents an important addition to the Olympic Library.
