Women writing about women. Mercede Mundula’s documents in the University Library of Cagliari
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The essay presents the life and documents of the Cagliari-born poet, essayist and writer Mercede Mundula (1890-1947). The documents were donated by her daughters to the University Library of Cagliari in 1997. The archive includes the work materials, the manuscripts and typescripts, correspondence relating to the successes of her works, conference texts, reviews and some of the posthumous critical literature. The manuscripts and correspondence were registered on Manus Online database, the printed materials were not. The complete list of documents is available at the Library, but the ‘non-archival’ treatment of fonds prevents a complete contextualisation and correct reading of the archive. It would be desirable, in view of the creation of an integrated information system, to proceed with an analytical description of fonds, while maintaining the order given by the producer and her heirs.
