口述历史后期成果的评价问题

Evaluation of Oral History Achievement

文章主要从口述历史访谈、口述文稿处理、口述历史成果的艺术呈现、文献收集与工作卷宗等问题进行论述。文章认为,口述历史访谈是口述史学中最主要的问题,也是口述历史后期成果评价的关键所在,而真实性则是口述历史的灵魂。口述文稿整理要遵守一定的学术规范,最重要的工作莫过于历史事实与文献资料的考证与核实。此外,整理者还要有一定的政治敏感性。口述历史成果的艺术呈现,主要是文献片与综述片两类。文献收集既是进行口述采访的必要准备,又是口述采访成果的重要补充。工作卷宗主要由法律类文件、工作过程类文件、工作成果类文件三部分组成,要求完整而详尽。
