"The following study, which focuses exclusively on the self-tracking symbols, will first contextualize Woodruff ’s symbolic coding within the culture of journal keeping in the nineteenth century. Looking at contemporaneous coded journals, this article will establish that Woodruff began using self-tracking symbols that were analogous to those used by other diarists in his day. Next, the discussion will demonstrate that Woodruff ’s system of self-tracking symbols grew more sophisticated and expansive
than those used by his contemporaries due to the diverse activities he was tracking. After situating this practice within its historical context, this article will provide a detailed explanation for each of the eighteen
self-tracking symbols." [Author] -
