Oral Narratives and Aboriginal Pasts

"This research report is an interdisciplinary literature review prepared for Indian and Northern Affairs Canada. The objective is to compile and synthesize opinions which address a variety of issues relating to oral narratives about the past. The 50-day study commenced January 15, 1996 and ended April 5, 1996."

"While the original objective of the research was to illuminate "oral tradition" as it relates to the interpretation of treaties in the Canadian Aboriginal context, the approach taken here involves an examination on a much broader scale. As such, the research may be of use not only to those parties interested specifically in treaties (see especially Section 6.22 infra), but to anyone struggling with the complex matters relating to the (re)construction of the history of relations between Native peoples and newcomers in Canada. The literature compiled here will assist in the assessment of any oral narratives about the past which are summoned as evidence for or against a variety of claims."
