- Authors
FAY, Terence; VONK, Nichole; GRIFFITH, Gwyn
- Abstract
Oral history is a driving force in religious history and has a strict methodology and reliable results. In tandem with the sources of traditional history, the conclusions are doubly dependable. In the style of postmodern history the results are not written in stone but the best research at that point of history. Terence Fay recorded the immigrant history of Chinese, Filipino, Korean, Tamil, and Vietnamese Canadian Catholics. Nichole Vonk developed permanent new history sources for the United Church Archives. Gwyn Griffith found qualitative history preserved the human voice for the Centre for Christian Studies.
