Overview

This study investigates the presentation, evaluation, and literary appropriation of sport, physical education, and physical exercise in the works of Robert Musil. In Musil’s day the modern "body cult” was gradually evolving, including the invention of sportas a modern life-form. The author examines the historical phenomenon of sport via evaluation of contemporary newspapers and specialist manuals, focusing subsequently on the estheticization and semanticization of sport in Musil’s works.
