| Summary: | „Die lernen dort Männer sein“ The image of the ideal soldier on the Isonzo Front in Alice Schalek’s war reporting
Past wars have often been viewed as a “school of masculinity”, as can be seen in journalist Alice Schalek’s war reporting on soldiers at the Isonzo Front (1916). Being a heroized soldier and a “manly” man in Schalek’s war reporting meant being endowed with qualities such as courage, discipline, loyalty to the fatherland and possessing control over one’s emotions. She also coined the term “Isonzo warrior” for soldiers marked by additional qualities such as a particularly high degree of endurance, steadfastness, tenacity and self-sacrifice. Another important point of this work is the display of emotions, which in Schalek’s reporting was only prominent in connection with officers.
