Diaries and travelogues

A diary often means a text consisting of dated, chronologically recorded notes, written in the first person. The entries are about things that the writer has experienced or learned about, and their thoughts and feelings play an important role in the text.

Diaries come in many different forms and styles. The distinction from other types of notebooks is not always clear. Especially in older times, family chronicles, travel journals, inventory books and almanac notes were often mixed with more pure diary entries. It was not unusual to have a notebook for several different types of notes.
