Rezensionen

"Writing with clarity and wit, in Transcribing Oral History, Teresa Bergen presents a comprehensive overview of transcribing methodology. She defines best practices and, drawing on examples from around the world and extensive experience, discusses the critical role of a transcriptionist as active, professional member of an oral history team. A must-read for anyone working in oral history and qualitative research."

Barbara W. Sommer, Oral Historian and Author, USA

"Transcribing Oral History is an engaging and practical book that will be a fantastic resource, not just for transcriptionists but for oral historians more generally who need to better understand how representation of their interviews affects people's understanding of them. This is an important companion work for anyone working in oral history."
