520 | _aThis article proposes a study of the emergence of a new form of travel stories. The reporting, by a few famous reporters, such as Pierre Giffard, Gaston Leroux, the Tharaud brothers, Jules Huret, Ludovic Baudeau. A new journalistic style of travel reporting develops, along with the emergence of new means of communication – notably the telegraph – and the Influence of the Anglo-Saxon model of information, based on the prime of fresh news. Every piece of news becomes worthwhile, but war-reporting is the ultimate stereotype of the genre. The report carries a double story: on one hand it sticks to the facts, on the other hand it dramatizes and heroizes the reporters – hence the necessity of writing in the first person at the very time when the accounting claims to be objective. This ambiguity can be put differently: the reporter suffers from his impossible position of observer-traveller and tries, by showing an exposed and suffering body, to change his status. The mythology that still surrounds the reporter proves that this symbolic and early-negotiated operation has perfectly succeeded. | ||
