British and Irish Women's
Letters and Diaries
British and
Irish Women’s Letters and Diaries spans more than 400 years of
personal writings, bringing together the voices of women from England,
Scotland, Ireland, and Wales. Complementing Alexander Street’s North
American Women's Letters and Diaries, the database lets researchers
view history in the context of women’s thoughts – their struggles,
achievements, passions, pursuits, and desires.
Extending back to the 1500s, the collection will show researchers the
various shapes and formats of the diary as it evolved, including the
travel diary, offering detailed accounts of journeys and descriptions of
places; the daily personal diary, in which women reflected more broadly
on aspects of their lives; letter diaries, wherein a daily dated letter
to a recipient served simultaneously as a diary entry; and other forms.
