In historical writing on World War I, Czech-speaking soldiers
serving in the Austro-Hungarian military are typically studied as
Czechs, rarely as soldiers, and never as men. As a result, the
question of these soldiers' imperial loyalties has dominated the
historical literature to the exclusion of any debate on their
identities and experiences. Men under Fire provides a
groundbreaking analysis of this oft-overlooked cohort, drawing on a
wealth of soldiers' private writings to explore experiences of
exhaustion, sex, loyalty, authority, and combat itself. It combines
methods from history, gender studies, and military science to
reveal the extent to which the Great War challenged these men's
senses of masculinity, and to which the resulting dynamics
influenced their attitudes and loyalties.
