  • storytelling as Oral History revealing the changing experience of home heating in england
    Energy research and social science, 2017
    Co-Authors: Barry Goodchild, Aimee Ambrose, Angela Mayebanbury
    Abstract:

    Oral History provides a means of understanding heating behaviour through encouraging respondents to articulate the past in terms of stories. Unlike other qualitative methods, Oral History foregrounds the ontology of personal experiences in a way that is well suited to revealing previously undocumented phenomena in the private world of the home. Three types of change may be distinguished: long term historical change, change associated with the life-cycle stage of the individual and sudden change. A sample of eight in-depth interviews is used to demonstrate the potential of Oral History in the study of home heating. The themes to emerge from the interviews include early memories of the home, the financial struggle to heat the home, the influence of childhood experiences in adulthood and the association between warmth and comfort. For the future, domestic comfort, energy conservation and carbon reduction need to be reconciled with one another.

  • “Seeking Information from the Lips of People”: Oral History in the archives of Qatar and the Gulf region
    Archival Science, 2018
    Co-Authors: Sumayya Ahmed
    Abstract:

    The turn to Oral History in Qatar and the Arabian (also known as Persian) Gulf is not a rejection of traditional archival authority as has been the case in other parts of the world. In the Gulf, Oral History has been embraced out of a desire to fill the silences of the largely unwritten record attributable to previous low levels of literacy and strong Oral traditions in the region. Today, Oral History is seen as the best method to capture details about traditional ways of life during the pre-oil era. After discussing archival concerns about the evidentiary nature of Oral histories, this paper explores how it has come to be a crucial documentation tool in the Gulf, adapted to the specific nation building and cultural heritage priorities of the region.
