Citing the French Wikipedia page for Annette Wieviorka, in English translation: "[Here, one notes Annette Wieviorka's sentiment of ambivalence as a histoirian in respect of these testimonies of survivors of the Shoah, of which certain have a character which is 'so imprecise, dare we say it, and sometimes fanciful', while others, 'on the other hand, are exceptional and sometimes permit those who have told their story for the first time, like Stanislaw Tomkiewicz [fr] or Henri Borlant [fr] to undertake the writing of a book'; Annette Wieviorka emphasizes their importance 'for the survivors and also their descendants']".
