In an interview shortly before his death, German-born writer W G. Sebald(1944-2001) made a remarkable comment on his 'ideal' reader, i.e. "a readerwho doesn't read the text but sees it". In the present article, Lennon approachesSebald's work not as that of a creative writer but as that of a critical reader, inan attempt to discover in how far Sebald himself 'saw' the texts he read.Starting from a number of Sebald's critical essays on Adalbert Stifter, CharlesSealsfield, Leopold Kompert, Karl Emil Franzos, Joseph Roth, Franz Kafka,and Vladimir Nabokov, Lennon investigates the connections between literatureand other graphic arts, namely painting, photography, and cinematography.

This article studies the use of field research as an anthropological tool in literary reportage which is a comprehensive element of the creation of journalistic content. Based on the examples of journalistic texts of the 20s by the Austrian writer Joseph Roth, we have analyzed the anthropological methods which were used by this author in his reportages, that is the main objective of this study. Using diachronic comparison, qualitative method and content analysis to evaluate and to explain the concept of Joseph Roth’s texts, as well as the methodology of textual, syntagmatic (by Volodymyr Propp) and paradigmatic analysis (by Claude Levi-Strauss), we have examined the generated meanings in the texts of the mentioned author. As a result of the study, we have identified four methods that Joseph Roth used writing his news reportages in the 1920s, including “In Midday France” and “White Cities”. Those methods are as follows: overt observation, in-depth interviews, fixing details and gaining empirical experience. The modern authors call these methods as classic ones, without which it is impossible to work in this genre. As we have seen from the examples of literary reportages of the French cycle by Joseph Roth, the anthropological tools used by this author for his works contributed to deepening and improving the quality of his texts which is of great significance for our study. Joseph Roth created a panoramic picture of the twentieth century in his texts through watching, communicating and studing. However, it is worth to add that he was often too subjective, suffering harsh criticism for this.
