The Epistolary Research Network

Letters are the most vital form of written communication to exist in human history. Their significance goes far beyond being a cultural object or social act. Letters provide evidence of human contact between individuals from every part of society and all peoples. Many questions have been asked. Many questions remain.

​

The letters and letter writing project was born out of a need to address these and many more issues inside and outside academia, in our work, in our homes, and our lives. The project acts as a forum for discussion, sharing, meeting, dialogue, and publication.  It seeks to unite those with a shared interest, whatever it may be, in letters from all geographical locations and all historical time periods.
