This final paper analyses images in travel books across Bosnia. Two 19th century travelogues are taken as a main subject of research. The first travelogue is written by Marija Mažuranić under the heading Pogled u Bosnu, whilst the second travelogue is entitled Putovanje po Bosni by Ivan Kukuljević Sakcinski. Turbulent political years in 19th century reflected on literature, and writers strived to awake and increase national awareness through literary works. Writers strived to approach readers by writing about beauties in their country, but also to raise belief in their own values in comparison to other countries. Because it was unexplored and exotic at the time, Bosnia brought certain writers to come visit. At the very beginning of their travel, both Mažuranić and Sakcinski mention their long desire to visit their neighbouring country Bosnia; country that was foreign for political reasons. Their perceptions of Bosnia can be seen through the traveloogue, and how they're both overwhelmed with the hospitality of the people who live there. All natural beauties of Bosnia are written with enthusiasm. In addition, what they both observed while traveling was economic underdevelopment and neglect of certain locations in the country. Sakcinski places emphasis on historical facts and Mažuranić focuses on folk tradition, which is the main distinction between the two travelogues.
