From Historical Inquiry to
Happenings of Being: Oral History as a
Phenomenological-Hermeneutics
Brooke Blackmon Bryan
http://ohla.info | @whyherenow
OHA 2019, Salt Lake City
What, exactly, does a
phenomenologist with an audio
recorder do?
 teach writing
 fund, train and support 62 oral
history & digital storytelling
projects for glca/glaa
 talk with people about talking
with people
 oral history allows for conversation
beyond correspondence
 our being is evanescent as vapor;
slips away or recedes when we
attempt to put it to language
 the interview becomes a site of
struggle where new being happens
 when we ask historical questions,
we ask about how we are in the
world
 through a struggle to language
we connect to the originary
power of our past and bring
possible futures into view
 in so doing, we burden being in
the present
 radical history of oral history
 stance on best practices
 inter-subjective meaning making
 guiding logic informed consent
 minimalist interview method
Oral History in the Liberal Arts
