Summary
Nenad Ivanković: In Search of Serenity
Essay testimony about the contemporary need for faith in the body, about the connection between mind and body and the battles that everyone goes through. I'm not talking about sports in the classical sense of the word, I'm talking about cheerfulness, about the experience of one's own body, similar to the way the spirit deals with the acquisition of knowledge and enjoys it. I'm talking about a new culture that took its first step back in the 20s of the last century. About a lifestyle that is a kind of answer to the challenges of the times - explains Nenad Ivanković in the book In search of cheerfulness, a unique essay testimony about the importance of good physical fitness for spiritual and emotional life, especially nowadays. Nenad Ivanković – journalist, publicist, long-time correspondent of the Croatian media from Germany, editor-in-chief of Vjesnik, host of the television show Pressklub, author of several Croatian bestsellers (President, what is left?, Warrior, Bloody Earth...), master of philosophy, former director of the Nordic national team of Croatia, journalist world champion in cross-country skiing...winner of Croatian and German national awards. For more than forty years, Nenad Ivanković has been intensively involved in sports, winning medals in various categories in as many as six sports, founding sports clubs... This book was born from this experience, which - due to the motivating and fighting conclusions and impressive descriptions of spiritual experiences - seems like an adventure novel in which the main character, after many vicissitudes, reaches the desired goal. A goal that is available to everyone if they embark on a physical adventure, regardless of whether they are recreational people, active athletes, or those who are looking for answers to the questions that modern everyday life poses to each of us. At a time when the body is mostly perceived only as an erotic and aesthetic object, when it is no longer needed as a source of strength for survival, we still discover that we need it more than ever. Because the intellect (mind) by definition cannot be a source of cheerfulness and a sense of health. It comes from the body. Bodies in shape, bodies that you trust and that trust you.
