Abstract

Writing by hand in calendaric diaries is one of the most important cultural techniques of the early modern period. The epistemic framework of the printed calendar, whose premises are by no means unproblematic, enables the writing self to document, narrate, and reflect on its own life against the background of the temporal framework of past, present, and future. Thereby, the latter is always subject to scrutiny by empiricism. The narrating ‘ego’ emerges from the calendaric order: authorship is constituted by an act of reception.
