Inhalt/e

The practice of travel and its depiction in journalism is often seen as entertainment, at the expense of its potential as a learning experience in itself and as a bridge between cultures. This form of narrative, much like classic travel literature, opens up the reader's understanding and thus facilitates dialogue with foreign sensibilities and beliefs. This course deals with travel and its representation in the narrative of literary journalism and also in digital media. From the printed book to the latest media innovations, journalistic narrative continues to offer sustainable possibilities for the reader to share experiences and connect readers, communities and distant lands, including fostering a sense of empathy. This includes:

1.Travel identity: Mirror and memory. 

The "tourist's gaze" has always been criticised by the "traveller's gaze", so that the narrative of each case reflects the memory of the experience differently.

2. Travel diaries - following rivers. Modern ways of communicating and learning about other people's journeys challenge the limits of time in storytelling.

3. Towards a sustainable/ethical travel culture. 

Following the restrictions during the Corona pandemic, the human impact on our cities and landscapes has become more evident. 

4. In giant shoulders: Live to tell. 

Travel practices and their representations are shaped by media/historical sensibilities.

5. Travel storytelling in real time. Tell to live. 

A narrative today can happen in a matter of minutes, the experience of travel, communication and representation are simultaneous.

6. Profession: correspondent journalist

Evolution comparing cultures.


Amongst the wide range of topics available, the lecture will focus on the following

aspects of travel representation, dialogue and discussion:

•   Theories of Community and Communication

•   Critical framework for the study of travel Journalism

•   Theories of Local/Foreign narrative in Journalism

•    Theories on eco-tourism

•   Techniques of travel fiction /non-fiction narrative
