Abstrakt
The subject of this paper is a travelogue of the Slovak poet and columnist Rudolf Fabry Salam Alekum: Stories from Old and New Egypt, published in 1958. The book is an example of a text written by a travelling citizen from a Socialist country, and at the same time a public figure.
The "Socialist" framework largely determined what Fabry had seen and heard and how his travel experience is thus described. Peculiarities of the travelling out of the Central European Socialist countries were mostly not mentioned in the text, but have to be outlined in order to perceive the information context of the travelogue.
