Abstract
Between 1932 and 1938 the writer and aviator Antoine de SaintExupéry collaborated with the French press of his time. These collaborations were a consequence of his economic difficulties as it was not vocation that led him to journalism. However, his work in this field constitutes a singular contribution and one of the lesser known facets about this author. This article analyzes one of the most significant features found in his journalistic writing, since it is the use that he did of the poetic image as an informative resource. In addition, following his example we have looked into the possible common values between journalism and poetry.Format
