Abstract
This article seeks to characterise the rise of the area of oral history in Portugal at the end of the 20th century, a fact to which researchers working in foreign academic contexts and originating from subject areas bordering on history made a contribution. We sketch out the situation of oral history and identify its practices, in which the women, more recent researchers, stand out, including a proportion from outside the academic world. On the basis of an analysis of works published by Paula Godinho , Luisa Tiago de Oliveira and Dalila Cabrita Mateus , some of the possibilities and problems raised by its employment are revealed.
