Abstract

Reportage as a journalistic genre has a strong position in Poland and its representatives achieve the highest status in the journalistic environment. At the same time controversy has grown around the issue of reportage. It stems from the fact that the representatives of the Polish school of reportage treat the genre as a border one lying between journalism and literature. Therefore, sometimes their texts include the elements of fiction and the subjective description, which is against the idea of journalistic objectivity. The article attempts to characterize the examples of reportage written by the contemporary Polish authors presenting the ways of combining the literary and journalistic elements in the texts.
