| Kuvaus: | During the 19th Century and the beginning of the 20th, writing letters was the most used method to stay in contact with the family, friends and keep a love relationship between working class persons that lived in distant places. The main objective of this work is to analyze the letters written between 1906 and 1910 by a seamstress that lived in Olavarria and her fiancé from Bahia Blanca —both cities are 300 km away— in order to identify the experiences and conceptions about the love, courtship and the marriage that are expressed in the mail; and to evaluate the way in which these expressions articulate with her condition of a working woman. The documentary corpus used for the analysis lets see the way in which common men and women embraced the ideas and beliefs of the time, that is, how the prescriptions of the genre regulations were taken like daily habits and how they were partially re-elaborated by the persons in a specific sociocultural environment. We also seek to reflect about the love in the working class world, a subject that the argentine historiography has rarely studied, specially with sources related to the emotional world of the same social actors. |
