Literary estates and archives in Romansh

Relevant materials are added to the collection on an ongoing basis. Reflecting the wide-ranging activities of the various generations of authors, the Romansh literary estates and archives also include numerous letters and other archival records that link this small cultural group to the rest of Switzerland and the wider world.
