Dear SEELANGers,
Can any of you point me to resources on Russian commonplace books? I
was having an interesting discussion with a (non-Slavicist) colleague
about the difference between commonplace books, ladies' albums, and
writers' notebooks, and realized that I've never come across any
mention of Russians (whether readers or writers, literati or just
literate) keeping a commonplace book.
It doesn't help that I don't know what the Russian for "commonplace
book" is!
Thanks for any leads,
Annie
