War correspondents are prominent actors in the media world. They
took hold in the cultural imaginary soon after their profession had
been created in the mid-nineteenth century. With particular focus
on Britain, Korte investigates the representation of war
correspondents from Victorian times to the present, in memoirs,
novels and films. Such representations react to prevailing notions
that exist about war reporters and help construct how we view them.
With its cultural approach, this book complements studies of war
correspondents in media and communication studies, history and
ethnology.
Barbara Korte teaches English literature and culture at the
University of Freiburg (Germany).
