This is the great contribution that all oral sources bring to history, though they need to be well comprehended and put to good use. Reading \u201cIl lavoro tra fonti orali, sonore e musicali: lo stato dell&#8217;arte in Italia\u201d (\u201cWork and oral, acoustic and musical sources: the current state of play in Italy\u201d), a research paper by Elisa Salvalaggio, can provide some guidance on the path undertaken by those who wish to gain a better grasp of industrial history.<\/p>\n<p>The study is based on an assumption: oral history, i.e. people&#8217;s stories, allows to explore historical phenomena through the eyes of those who lived through them, with a focus on the protagonists&#8217; subjective viewpoints \u2013 it means listening to the voice of experience. This leads to uncover different perspectives on events and places, different impressions that, taken all together, build a picture that more faithfully represents what really happened (or is happening). Here, sounds are understood as words that can provide the missing pieces to even the most comprehensive account of what went on. True oral culture, conveyed through narratives that, though not committed to paper, is nonetheless significant and leaves its mark.
