Chapter in the collective monograph "Phenomenon: Polish Literary Reportage" (authors: M. Benešová, R.
Rusin Dybalska, L. Zakopalová el. al.).
Using the works of two Polish authors which have also appeared in Czech translation as examples, the article attempts to suggest how these reporters work with sources, how they introduce their topics and write about them (P. Smoleński writes obout Middle East, L.
Ostałowska about World Wat II and Romani Holocaust).
