'What is a letter?' blog seeks guest writers
The blog ‘What is a letter?' (whatisaletter.wordpress.com) is dedicated to research on letters, letter-writing, and letter cultures. It was created and is run by Dr Marie Isabel Matthews-Schlinzig (UK) and Caroline Socha (Germany). The spirit of the blog is to foster the exchange of ideas across the boundaries of disciplines, countries, and institutions.
The blog is designed to be both a useful resource and a forum for serious letterphiliacs. We publicize research projects, publications past and present, calls for papers, conference announcements and reports, news on exhibitions, and similar events; the main working languages of the blog are English and German.
Please get in touch
* if you are interested in writing a guest post (e.g. to present your research, review a relevant publication, report on a letter-related event);
* if you are organizing a conference or another event;
* if you simply want to help expand the blog’s resources (information on current research projects, bibliographical data, etc.).
There are two ways to contact us: either send an email to whatisaletter@gmail.com or use the contact form on the blog.
We look forward to hearing from you!
