Novels in the form of diaries exist since the early 18th century. They are defined by specific characteristics on a thematic, poetological and narratological level. For the first time texts from the 18th to the 20th century are considered as an autonomous genre within this study. The diary novel experimented for over 300 years with textual-narrative procedures which are regarded as innovative even today.
