This course explores the intersection of memory studies and oral history in the Middle East, contrasting its development with Western academic traditions. We will learn the key theories of memory studies, examining how the socio-political context of the Middle East has shaped the field and influenced oral history practices. We will trace the evolution of oral history theories and methodologies. We will engage with seminal texts, particularly those by feminist scholars, to understand the reciprocal relationship between oral history and the feminist movement in the Middle East. Through an examination of various oral history projects across the region, we will learn about important historical events from the perspectives of those who witnessed them. This will allow us to understand how personal memories contribute to collective narratives and shape our understanding of the past. Furthermore, we will analyze the influence of subaltern studies and social history on contemporary Middle Eastern historians. The course includes an important empirical part. Students will collaborate on a research project throughout the semester, conducting interviews, analyzing data, and producing written work based on their findings. Schließen
