You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 3.219.0.0/16 has been blocked by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 20:45, 23 August 2024. Your current IP address is 3.219.218.35.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

It was an indoor precursor of [[tennis]] played without [[racquet]]s, and so "game of the hand", though these were eventually introduced. It is a former [[Olympic sport]], and has the oldest ongoing annual world championship in sport, first established over 250 years ago. The term also refers to the court on which the game is played<ref>''The Oxford-Hachette French Dictionary'', 2007, p. 469. ((ISBN|9780198614227)).</ref> and its building, which in the 17th century was sometimes converted into a [[Theater (structure)|theatre]].<ref>W. L. Wiley, ''The Early Public Theatre in France'', 1960, pp. 158–170.</ref>

==History==
[[File:Jeu de paume racquets and battoirs, 1772.jpg|left|thumb|Late 18th-century illustration of jeu de paume paddle-bats or ''battoirs'', and (in various stages of construction) strung racquets.]]

In the earliest versions of the game, the players hit the ball with their hands, as in [[Palla (game)|palla]], [[volleyball]], [[Fives]], or certain varieties of [[Basque pelota|pelota]]. ''Jeu de paume'', or ''jeu de paulme'' as it was formerly spelled,<ref name="Diderot">((cite book

))</ref> literally means "palm game".  In time, gloves replaced bare hands.  Even when paddle-like bats, and finally racquets, became standard equipment for the game by the late 17th century, the name did not change.  It became known as "tennis" in English ''(see [[Tennis#History|History of tennis]])'', and later "[[real tennis]]" after the derived game of [[Tennis|lawn tennis]] became the more widely known sport.

The term is used in France today to denote the game of tennis on a court in which the ancient or modern game might be played. The indoor version is sometimes called ''jeu de courte paume'' or just ''courte paume'' ("short palm") to distinguish it from the outdoor version, ''[[longue paume]]'' ("long palm"), played on a field of variable length.

[[Jeu de paume at the 1908 Summer Olympics|At the 1908 Summer Olympics]], jeu de paume was a medal event: [[United States|American]] [[Jay Gould II]] won the gold medal.<ref>((cite web|url=https://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/sports/JDP/mens-singles.html |title=Jeu De Paume Men's Singles Medalists |access-date=19 December 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110519154218/http://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/sports/JDP/mens-singles.html |archive-date=19 May 2011 ))</ref>

Since 1740, jeu de paume has been the subject of an amateur world championship, held each year in September. It is the oldest active trophy in international sport.<ref>((Cite web|url=https://uscourttennis.org/2018/9459/|title=World Championship 2018|date=12 April 2018|website=USCTA|language=en-US|access-date=17 May 2019))</ref>

[[File:Jeu de paume, Fontainebleau (septembre 1991).JPG|right|thumb|A modernised court in the [[Palace of Fontainebleau]], Fontainebleau (1991).]]
[[Étienne Pasquier]], a writer and a historian, published an essay regarding jeu de paume in his ''Recherches''; late 16th century.  Pasquier was addicted to the sport.<ref>Huppert, George; ''The Idea of Perfect History'', footnote 14 on page 160.</ref>

The [[Galerie nationale du Jeu de Paume]], a museum of contemporary art, is housed in a former court on the north side of the [[Tuileries]] park in the centre of [[Paris]].

The painter [[Jacques-Louis David]]'s famous sketch, ''le Serment du jeu de paume'' ('the [[Tennis Court Oath]]') now hangs in the court of the [[Palace of Versailles]]. It depicts a seminal moment of the [[French Revolution]], when, on 20 June 1789, deputies of the Estates-General met at the court and vowed that they would not disband before the proclamation of a formal Constitution for France.

''Le Jeu de Paume'' is a moral ode published in 1791 by [[André Chénier]].

In the 1981 film ''[[The French Lieutenant's Woman (film)|The French Lieutenant's Woman]]'', socialite Charles Smithson ([[Jeremy Irons]]) is seen playing ''jeu de paume'' in London.

In the ''[[Agatha Christie's Poirot]]'' TV series episode "Death in the Clouds", [[Hercule Poirot|Poirot]] mentions that tennis, considered an English game, originated in 11th-century France as ''jeu de paume.''

The 2014 [[Whitney Biennial]] exhibition featured the premiere of the stop-motion film ''Jeu de Paume'' by [[Joshua Mosley]].
