Rachel,
ALthough, I am currently not in the field, I thought I
would throw out my 2 cents. During my days, I was
interested in doing something similiar, not just oral
history, but linguistics in general. The funny thing
is I hated the subject, simply due in part is was my
most difficult aspect of anthropological study.
That being said, the dilemma was the balance of visual
information dealing with an auditory subject. I never
got very far, my literature search became as
frustrating as yours.
I realize that this doesn't help much, but since it
was your first post, I thought I would reply to let
you know it worked.
Cheers,
Brad
