Scope and Contents
Series IV, WRITING, ca.1975-2010 (#48.5-50.14, E.11-E.29) includes published articles and book drafts by Wiseman on dream therapy, children's nightmares, making crafts, and traveling. Wiseman wrote multiple memoir-themed novels with different titles, which focused on her love affair with a married Italian count when she was nineteen and ended with her visit to him many years later to confront him. "The Hungry Voice: Unfinished Business" and "Un Cantico D'Amor..." document this episode, with name changes. Her two fellowship applications propose writing and publishing her memoir, using her diary entries and sketchbooks. Folders may contain drafts, correspondence, marketing flyers, and notes. Wiseman also frequently published sketches from conferences in dream therapy-related publications and in booklet form to be given away or sold to participants. See also #52FB.1v for a sample of her craft book Making Things. Folders are arranged chronologically by publication date; dates of items within folders may vary by several months or years.
