“Travelers (1936–1971)” offers the first comprehensive account of Argentine visits to the Falkland/Malvinas Islands between 1936 and 1971, a period in which such journeys were rare and logistically complex. Drawing on a wide range of travel chronicles – books, articles, interviews, films, and lectures – it reconstructs how Argentine visitors represented the islanders and their way of life to mainland audiences. These first-person accounts shaped what Argentines knew, or believed they knew, about a largely unfamiliar population at a time when interest in the “Malvinas issue” was steadily growing. The chapter examines the motivations behind these trips, the backgrounds of the travelers, and the narratives they produced, revealing a spectrum of perspectives often marked by nationalist assumptions. Despite their differences, the chronicles generally sought to humanize and explain a distant community, filling an information gap left by school curricula and press coverage. Some gained national visibility and entered public debate, influencing how generations of Argentines imagined the islanders – their origins, loyalties, and aspirations. By critically examining these sources, the chapter shows how Argentine representations of the Falklands community were shaped as much by direct observation as by excpectation and belief.
