Freelancer. War Correspondent Mieczysław Jełowicki’s Letters from Bucharest (1913)

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to analyze the letters written by Mieczysław Jełowicki and sent by him from Bucharest to Polish newspapers during the peace conference ending the Second Balkan War and after its closing. These letters, published as „original” or „special” correspondences, serve as a testimony of journalist’s observations on Romanian behaviours, and of his reflec-tions on the policy of the Balkan states and the attitude of European powers towards that policy. In particular, the author focused on the textual, formal and content complexity of these correspondences, released in variable forms in several newspapers at the same time. Moreover, the author described the evolution of Jełowicki’s views, in which prejudices and stereotypical images about Romania, are replaced by the understanding and sympathy for that country.
