Abstract

This article presents an unpublished diary (March-April 1932) of Vittoria Contini Bonacossi, held by the Archivio di Stato in Florence. Analysis of this document shows how the diary goes beyond the typical characteristics of this literary genre – as a mere registration of facts –, to become a means of communication with a hypothetical posterity.
