It pays particular attention to the question of how autobiographical sources addressed the topic of suicide and how the latter was presented in the context of the period’s emotional regime. The contribution focuses on the reasons or motives for suicides mentioned in memoirs and letters, on the people who committed them, and on the mode in which suicides were described by the contemporaries, family members, or friends of those who committed them. As demonstrated, suicides were contextualised in various ways, depending on one’s gender, social class, or political affiliation, while the motives for taking one’s life included a plethora of reasonsČlanek se ukvarja z vprašanjem, kako je slovenska družba dojemala samomor v drugi polovici 19. in prvi polovici 20. stoletja. Posebna pozornost je namenjena vprašanju, kako so avtobiografski viri obravnavali temo samomora in kako je bila predstavljena v kontekstu čustvenega režima tistega obdobja. Pri tem so v ospredju razlogi ali motivi za samomore, omenjeni v spominih in pismih, žrtve samomorov in način, kako so samomore opisovali njihovi sodobniki, družinski člani ali prijatelji. Kot se je izkazalo, so bili samomori kontekstualizirani na zelo različne načine glede na spol, družbeni razred ali politično pripadnost, motivi zanje pa so vključevali najrazličnejše razlogeTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaInštitut za novejšo zgodovino
