O CĂLĂTORIE IMAGINARĂ ÎN JURUL PĂMÂNTULUI SEMNATĂ DE MARIUS MIRCU
AN IMAGINARY JOURNEY AROUND THE EARTH SIGNED BY MARIUS MIRCU

Summary/Abstract: Marius Mircu, the Romanian journalist of Jewish nationality, born in Bacău at the beginning of the 20th century, was placed in the elite gallery of the Romanian reportage, together with Geo Bogza and F. Brunea Fox. In an era when the access to education was relatively limited, the vast majority of the population was not used to travel in order to enrich their cultural knowledge. Marius Mircu invites us to an imaginary journey around the world, in one day. The travel reportages were occasioned by some of the most important events of the middle of the last century –the universal exhibitions –, which offered to the visitors the opportunity to get acquainted with the most significant cultural aspects of the different countries around the globe. Our study presents the travel reportages, published in the „The Journal of Sciences and Travel”, by Marius Mircu.
