In the past sixty years, oral history has moved from the periphery
to the mainstream of academic studies and is now employed as a
research tool by historians, anthropologists, sociologists, medical
therapists, documentary film makers, and educators at all levels.
The Oxford Handbook of Oral History brings together forty authors
on five continents to address the evolution of oral history, the
impact of digital technology, the most recent methodological and
archival issues, and the application of oral history to both
scholarly research and public presentations. The volume is
addressed to seasoned practitioners as well as to newcomers,
offering diverse perspectives on the current state of the field and
its likely future developments. Some of its chapters survey large
areas of oral history research and examine how they developed;
others offer case studies that deal with specific projects, issues,
and applications of oral history. From the Holocaust, the South
African Truth and Reconciliation Commissions, the Falklands War in
Argentina, the Velvet Revolution in Eastern Europe, to memories of
September 11, 2001 and of Hurricane Katrina, the creative and
essential efforts of oral historians worldwide are examined and
explained in this multipurpose handbook.
