oral history
Definition
- Oral history—research into the past that records the memories of witnesses to the past in order to draw on direct and personal experience of events and conditions—occupies an area of overlap between history, sociology, cultural studies, and psychology. Arguments in support of oral history turn on the challenge that it presents to official and dominant accounts of the past that are based in documentary sources.
