In contemporary societies, heroism and its tropes have been perceived as pre-modern, childish, and relegated to an “uncivilized” or “unsophisticated” status. Heroism has been casted as a vestige of uncivilized [sic] societies, raising questions about the virtues of the warrior and its anachronic character thus contributing to claims about a modern sophisticated post-heroic age (Anderson, 1986; Hegel, 2005; Scheipers, 2014; Schlechtriemen, 2019; Kluth, 2022; Solnit, 2022). Some scholars point to both World Wars as pivotal moments marking this change in eras (von der Hoff et al., 2019) effectively bringing the heroic era to an end.

摘要

In contemporary societies, heroism and its tropes have been perceived as pre-modern, childish, and relegated to an “uncivilized” or “unsophisticated” status. Heroism has been casted as a vestige of uncivilized [sic] societies, raising questions about the virtues of the warrior and its anachronic character thus contributing to claims about a modern sophisticated post-heroic age (Anderson, 1986; Hegel, 2005; Scheipers, 2014; Schlechtriemen, 2019; Kluth, 2022; Solnit, 2022). Some scholars point to both World Wars as pivotal moments marking this change in eras (von der Hoff et al., 2019) effectively bringing the heroic era to an end.
