Memory and Narration
Words and Silences Volume 9, Number 1,

We present this collection of papers as a “post-conference issue,” providing the membership and the broader oral history community and audience a glimpse into oral history conversations, ideas and practices that were exchanged last June at the IOHA 2018 Congress at the University of Jyväskylä in Finland. In addition, mirroring the IOHA 2018 theme of “Memory and Narration,” we feature a few additional papers and reflections submitted directly to this theme, in response to our call for member submissions.
