Resumo: This article proposes a reflection on the methodological challenges presented and faced by oral history research from the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic and the physical isolation it entailed. It conceptualizes and focuses on actions for the present’s “urgent documentation,” arguing that these are neither a discontinuation in relation to oral history research traditions, nor a return to the documentary ambition that marks the very emergence of the oral history practice – but a practice that merges plural methodological principles and theoretical propositions developed from the use of the method. Finally, the article assumes the construction of narrative communities and the creation of visibility of experiences of subjects and groups in situations of vulnerability as public commitments that are imperatives for researchers in and of the present, for whom technology presents itself as a challenging ally.

Conceitua e focaliza as ações de “documentação urgente” do presente, argumentando que elas constituem não um gesto de descontinuidade em relação às tradições de pesquisa em história oral, nem um retorno à ambição documentarista que marca o próprio surgimento da prática de história oral – mas uma prática que se baseia na combinação de propostas metodológicas e proposições teóricas plurais desenvolvidas a partir do uso do método. O artigo assume, por fim, a construção de comunidades narrativas e a visibilização de experiências de sujeitos e grupos em situações de vulnerabilidade como compromissos públicos que se apresentam como imperativos para pesquisadores no e do presente, para os quais a tecnologia apresenta-se como desafiadora aliada.SciELO PreprintsSciELO PreprintsSciELO Preprints2022-10-24info:eu-repo/semantics/preprintinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/preprint/view/485010.1590/SciELOPreprints.4850porhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/article/view/4850/9397Copyright (c) 2022 Ricardo Santhiagohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSanthiago, Ricardoreponame:SciELO Preprintsinstname:SciELOinstacron:SCI2022-10-11T14:45:27Zoai:ops.preprints.scielo.org:preprint/4850Servidor de preprintshttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scieloONGhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/oaiscielo.submission@scielo.orgopendoar:2022-10-11T14:45:27SciELO Preprints - SciELOfalse
