Match my epistolary freak : sexual desire in the electronic collection Pisma/LettersDarko Ilin, 2024, published scientific conference contribution abstract
Abstract: The lecture will focus on the exploration of sexuality as reflected in the letters of Slovene women writers at the turn of the century. This event will delve into the rich correspondences found in the PISMA/LETTERS electronic collection, a project that has brought to light the intimate and personal writings of these authors. The lecture will begin with an introduction to the project, providing an overview of the electronic collection's origins and the subsequent publication that emerged from it. We will then explore the unique characteristics of the letter as a medium, discussing its materiality and drawing parallels with contemporary
modes of communication. The central focus of the lecture will be an in-depth analysis of the erotic elements within these letters. By examining how sexual desire is narrated across different contexts, we will uncover the subtle ways in which these women expressed their desires and navigated the societal
constraints of their time. This exploration promises to offer a fascinating glimpse into the personal lives and inner worlds of Slovene women writers, revealing the complexity and richness of their experiences
