O (nie)widoczności prowadzącego spotkanie ze świadkiem historii – wstępna typologia ról inicjujących wywiady narracyjne

Abstract

On the (in)visibility of the leader in a meeting with a witness of history: a preliminary typology of roles that initiate narrative interviews The paper reflects on sender-recipient relations characteristic for the participants of a narrative interview with a witness of history. The research material comprises 1931 verbal activities, collected in the Archive of Oral History of The Warsaw Rising Museum, of people who conducted 32 meetings with participants of the Warsaw Uprising in 1944. The application of the interactive concept of text allowed us to create a preliminary typology of the activities of meeting leaders, viz. to identify four types of initiation: the opening, the complementary, the deepening and ordering, and the reactive one. Further analyses led to the identification of roles taken on by people who conduct meetings with witnesses of history, which we named the journalist, the researcher, and the friend.
