Entre el 9 i el 12 de juliol de 2014 s'ha desenvolupat a Barcelona el XVIII Congrés Internacional d'Història Oral, promogut i organitzat per la Universitat de Barcelona i la International Oral History Association. Aquesta trobada bianual ha reunit 350 persones de 30 països dels cinc continents. S'han presentat 250 comunicacions, una de les quals era la meva, relacionada amb el meu projecte d'investigació sobre la Fira de Santa Llúcia. Us adjunto el Pdf per qui li pugui interessar. També un resum en anglès. |

ABSTRACT
This communication is part of the thesis entitled “La fira de santa Llúcia de Barcelona: la
primera fira de pessebres documentada (1786-2012)”, directed by Dr. Maria
Josefa Roma within the Program of Advanced Studies in Social Anthropology from
the University of Barcelona.
In Catalunya,
popular tradition calls the "Fira de
Santa Llucia" the market selling Christmas nativity figures and
decorations installed in front of the Cathedral of Barcelona. This market formerly
began the day of Santa Lucia, 13 December, due to the feast day of the patron
of the chapel attached to the Cathedral.
One of the major obstacles in achieving the objectives
of the research was the scarce existence of documentation, caused mainly by the
press and by the municipal administration, which are responsible as guarantor
and custodian of the event.
It is research directed from two sides - historical
and anthropological – which propose a diachronic and synchronic study to
determine the genesis and evolutionary process of the Fira within its own context. The ethno-historical approach requires
depleting document sources. For an anthropological
analysis it is imperative that fieldwork prioritize oral history through
surveys and interviews as well as participant observation.
In this communication the procedure for conducting
such interviews, the selection criteria, preparation, implementation and
subsequent data analysis is explained.
Recovery of oral history has been instrumental in
completing the objectives and the combination of historical analysis and
anthropological methodology reinforces the value of our research and spotlights
the social composition of the Fira, proving
once again that interdisciplinarity is a rising value in research.
