<< review queue entry 73235 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> Minor rewording the def. 有時受訪者會有所保留，要求有一些東西不要寫出來，這是口述歷史本質上永遠的問題，因為大家都希望隱惡揚善。要克服這問題的一個方法就是不用真名，如果我們的目的是建構女性歷史，用化名也沒有關係，以便使受訪者講出更真實的感覺。 Sometimes, interviewees will hold back or ask that the interviewer not make a record of some things. This is always a problem when making oral history: everyone wants to show the good and hide the bad. A way of dealing with this problem is to use a pseudonym. If we want to construct women's history, there's nothing wrong with using an alias to get interviewees to speak about their true feelings. 另一方面，受訪者跟口述者之間，經過一次又一次的詢答，要互相建立信任基礎，才有可能問出更多的內容，但是常常也因為彼此太熟悉了，訪者會對受訪者產生「同情」，也會對事件持相同看法，甚或在受訪者「隱惡揚善」的心態下，問出來的，只是訪者的一面之詞。 On the other hand, it is necessary for the interviewer to develop a basis of trust to get the maximum amount of information out of the interviewee. However, often over-familiarity leads the interviewer to develop sympathy for the subject, and to reach the same conclusions as the interviewee. It is also possible that the interviewee will want to hide some things and play up others, only providing a one-sided story. 另外，現今曾經在台面上叱吒風雲的人「或為賢者諱，或當事人尚在」也多不願提筆寫回憶，當然有些出版社或記者基於保存歷史或為市場需求，為這些人物作傳，但囿於寫作者的學力，未必能談出重點，而隱惡揚善、避重就輕、歌功頌德等傳統傳記的缺點就又紛紛出現。 In addition, many prominent people say "those involved are still alive," so they refuse to write memoirs about recent events in Taiwan. Of course some publishing houses or reporters who are anxious to make a historical record may produce unauthorized biographies. But due to differences in the abilities of writers, they won't necessarily hit the most important points. The tradition of hagiography is also very evident in the works of many of these writers. |
