口述史与女性主义研究的亲缘性

口述史与女性主义视角在研究主体、研究内容、研究的真实性和研究主客体之间的关系等方面存在诸多相似之处,即由于种种社会历史原因,大量普通女性和底层民众往往被排除在主流历史建构过程之外,但是书写历史的神圣性常让人们遗忘这一点。正是在这一点上,口述历史可以帮助我们从妇女对日常生活的讲述中挽救和建构妇女史。相比于文字材料,口述材料的特殊价值在于对讲述者主体性的尊重和恢复,以及以此为基础重新建构起来的研究双方的平等关系。

On the Similarities between Oral History and Feminism

There are many similarities between oral history and feminism in terms of research subject,substance,view on truth,and the relationship between researcher and subject.Both share the view that a large number of ordinary women and low-level people are excluded from mainstream history due to various social and historical reasons.However,this is often forgotten due to the sanctity of written history.It is at this point that oral history can help us to reconstruct women’s history from the everyday life narration of women.It is in the equal relationship of the researcher and research subject that the special significance of oral history resources lies.
