Abstract

A Guide to Oral History and the Law is the definitive resource for all oral history practitioners. In clear, accessible language it thoroughly explains all of the major legal issues including legal release agreements, the protection of restricted interviews, the privacy torts (including defamation), copyright, the impact of the Internet, and the role of Institutional Review Boards (IRBs). The author accomplishes this by examining the most relevant court cases and citing examples of policies and procedures that oral history programs have used to avoid legal difficulties. Neuenschwander's central focus throughout the book is on prevention rather than litigation. He underscores this approach by strongly emphasizing how close adherence to the Oral History Association's Principles and Best Practices provides the best foundation for developing sound legal policies. The book also provides more than a dozen sample legal release agreements that are applicable to a wide variety of situations. This volume is an essential one for all oral historians regardless of their interviewing focus.

Abstract

The interview is completed, the recorder packed away, and you've captured the narrator's voice for posterity. The bulk of your oral history is finished? or is it? Nancy MacKay, archivist and oral historian, addresses the crucial issue often overlooked by researchers: How do you ensure that the interview you so carefully recorded will be preserved and available in the future? MacKay goes carefully through the various steps that take place after the interview? transcribing, cataloging, preserving, archiving, and making your study accessible to others. Written in a practical, instructive style, MacKay guides readers, step by step, to make the oral history? archive ready?, offers planning strategies, and provides links to the most current information in this rapidly evolving field. This book will be of interest to oral historians, librarians, archivists and others who conduct oral history and maintain oral history materials. See more at http://www.nancymackay.net/curating/

Abstract

History is one of the most important cultural tools to make sense of one’s situation, to establish identity, define otherness, and explain change. This is the first systematic scholarly study that analyses the complex relationship between history and religion, taking into account religious groups both as producers of historical narratives as well as distinct topics of historiography. Coming from different disciplines, the authors of this volume ask under which conditions and with what consequences religions are historicised. How do religious groups employ historical narratives in the construction of their identities? What are the biases and elisions of current analytical and descriptive frames in the History of Religion? The volume aims at initiating a comparative historiography of religion and combines disciplinary competences of Religious Studies and the History of Religion, Confessional Theologies, History, History of Science, and Literary Studies. By applying literary comparison and historical contextualization to those texts that have been used as central documents for histories of individual religions, their historiographic themes, tools and strategies are analysed. The comparative approach addresses circum-Mediterranean and European as well as Asian religious traditions from the first millennium BCE to the present and deals with topics such as the origins of religious historiography, the practices of writing and the transformation of narratives.

Abstract

Nous sommes capables de fabriquer le passé à la demande, de le façonner autour d'images, d'objets, de reconstitutions, où le passé est, précisément, « rejoué ». Ces pratiques, inspirées par des imaginaires, s'inscrivent dans ce qu'il est possible d'appeler des « cultures de l'histoire », diverses selon les époques. Cet ouvrage les replace dans la longue durée et s'efforce de comprendre leur intensification contemporaine, liée aux transformations d'ensemble des rapports au passé. Les exemples sont pris notamment dans les domaines de l'archéologie, de l'iconographie, des commémorations, des fêtes et spectacles d'histoire.

Abstract

Toegankelijke inleiding in de historische praktijk voor het secundair geschiedenisonderwijs. Was het dodelijke schot dat Gavrilo Princip op 28 juni 1914 afvuurde de rechtstreekse aanleiding voor het losbarsten van de Eerste Wereldoorlog? Moeten we de dieperliggende oorzaken voor de Groote Oorlog eerder in de militair-politieke dan wel in de economische sfeer zoeken? En wat met de rol van het toeval in dit alles? Deze en andere historische vragen werden doorheen de afgelopen eeuw uiteenlopend beantwoord. Die verschillende, zelfs rivaliserende representaties van voorbije fenomenen, hebben alles te maken met hoe historici geschiedenis schrijven. Via voorbeelden uit de historiografie over de Eerste Wereldoorlog biedt dit tweede volume in de reeks Historisch denken een toegankelijke inleiding in de historische praktijk. Per hoofdstuk krijgt de lezer verschillende didactische scenario's, toepasbaar in het secundair geschiedenisonderwijs. Tot slot gaat dit boek in op hoe het historisch metier een zinvolle en haalbare vertaling kan krijgen naar het vak geschiedenis.
