Women in Agriculture during the First World War: A Regional Perspective on a Blind Spot in World War One Historiography. The everyday life of women in the countryside has barely been dealt with by the historical literature on World War One. Yet, around 1910, the majority of women in the Austrian half of the Habsburg Monarchy lived and worked in agrarian contexts. Research about their war experiences is particularly important, as men were called up from the summer of 1914 onwards. In consequence, women had to bear the responsibility for the farm’s output. Alongside women, there worked children, old people, and – from 1915 onwards – also prisoners-of-war. Documents that help to reconstruct women’s war experiences in urban spaces – such as documents from women’s associations or ego-documents – do not exist for the countryside. An initial approach to reconstructing the everyday life of women in the years 1914–1918 is thus provided by analysing the various discourses about women in the regional press, with this article taking the western Austrian province of Tyrol as a case study.
