摘要：Literary theory puts memoirs on the intersection between literary and semi-literary genres,which makes them specific by definition. But when we talk about memoirs of diplomats,they are even more specific,as they are often the only source describing events that took place in diplomatic intercourse. This article analyses the significance of writing memoirs as seen by diplomats through interviews with ten Slovenian diplomats. The interviewees agree that memoirs need to be written,not only to shed light on events that took place in diplomacy,but also because they can be important literary works and contribute to the spread of diplomatic terminology.
其他摘要：Memoari oz. spominska literatura je v literarni teoriji uvrščena na presek med literarnimi in polliterarnimi zvrstmi. Kot takšna je že per definitionem specifična. Če pa govorimo o spominih diplomatov,so ti še bolj specifični,saj so mnogokrat edini vir opisa dogodkov,ki so se v diplomatskem občevanju zgodili. Pričujoči članek,na podlagi 10 izvedenih intervjujev med slovenskimi diplomati,ki so napisali (pol)literarna dela,analizira pomen pisanja spominov,kot ga razumejo diplomati sami. Intervjuvanci se strinjajo,da je spomine pomembno pisati ne samo zaradi osvetljevanja dogodkov,ki so se zgodili v diplomaciji, ampak tudi zato,ker so spomini lahko pomembno literarno delo oz. delo,ki prispeva k uveljavljanju terminologije s področja diplomacije..
