Oral History Australia Biennial Conference 2017
Moving Memories: Oral history in a global world
Sydney Masonic Conference and Function Centre
Goulburn Street Sydney
13-16 September 2017
Moving Memories, our title and main theme, refers to memories generated across space and time, both local and national, as well as cross-cultural and international. It also refers to memories which have emotional impact on listeners: remembering which moves us to laughter or tears. The theme draws on some of the new directions in oral history that address: the impact of migration and asylum-seeking around the world; as well as the exchange between narrator and listener that is 'memory work', or the emotional labour that is involved in memory practices such as oral history.
