description Folklore archives – witnesses of the history of ethnological studies. This study proposes a rereading of the documents kept in a folklore archive from Romania, with a focus on the methods used by those who drafted and archived these documents. The research demonstrates that, in the absence of testimonies regarding the manner in which fieldwork was conducted, the documents of the archive can provide valuable information on the field research and the vision on folklore of several generations of researchers. Thus, archives of folklore are seen as witnesses of the history of ethnology. REZUMAT. Arhivele de folclor – martori ai istoriei disciplinelor etnologice. Studiul de față propune o relectură a documentelor păstrate într-o arhivă de folclor din România, din unghiul metodelor utilizate de cei care au redactat și au arhivat aceste documente. Cercetarea demonstrează faptul că, în lipsa unor mărturii cu privire la modul în care s-au desfășurat cercetările de teren, documentele arhivei pot oferi informații valoroase despre practica de teren și despre viziunea asupra folclorului pe care au avut-o mai multe generații de cercetători. Astfel, arhivele de folclor se constituie în martori ai istoriei etnologiei. Cuvinte-cheie: folcloristică, studii de etnologie, arhivă de folclor, cercetare de teren, arhivare, metodologia cercetării, istoria etnologiei, etnologia românească în comunism și post-comunism.
