The analysis attempts to define the character of travelogue in both authors’ work, and to employ their work in order to outline the changes which the travel discourse has undergone over the recent years.

This article describes authorial voice through evidential and epistemic sentential devices in a corpus of 19th and early 20th century travel texts. The corpus contains four works written by female travellers and the other four by men. Therefore, apart from providing a catalogue of the strategies deployed by the authors in order to mark modality and evidentiality, we also report on expected differences in their frequencies of use in relation to the writer’s gender. In addition, the interest of this study lies in the fact that, to the best of our knowledge, no research on writer stance has previously been carried out in texts belonging to the genre of travel writing.

As a material of research three travel reports of second half of XVIIIth. and the beginning of XIXth. centuries were analyzed. The author considers the speech genres features which are very complex and various. Apart from genre analysis the aspects of the picture of Silesia and its inhabitants were described. Silesia was portrayed in observed texts among other things as a land of great industry and economic success, both Catholic and Protestant faiths, remaining under foreign influence and furthermore, inhabited by smart, helpful and interesting people.The analyzed text show that the process of forming the jour-nalist genres is very complex and long–term.

The versatile portrait of Silesia and its inhabitants confirms the great interest of foreign lands in the age of Enlightenment.
