The Diary Research Website |
Welcome |
|
.....to the Diary Research Website, which is primarily a guide to the location of historical and literary sources, in the forms of Diaries and Journals, from all periods and parts of the world, which have been printed in English and are listed in the third edition of An Annotated Bibliography of Diaries Printed in English, compiled by Christopher Handley and published by Hanover Press. The scope and content of the Bibliography are best illustrated by the sample pages and from the list of diarists. The free access version of the second edition of the Bibliography, which used to feature on this site, is no longer available. Casual visitors may find the explanatory notes helpful. The third edition of the Bibliography is now out of print, and very hard to find second-hand, but is available from this site in searchable pdf format as a download or on CDROM. The fourth edition is in course of preparation but is unlikely to be published for some years. The link provides a brief overview and discusses the possibility of access to the work in progress. It should be emphasised that, with two exceptions, this site is not a repository of diary texts.
