Appears in 5 videos · 5 passages.
Dominique Pagani mentions Annie Lacroix-Riz mainly for her work as a historian of the archives. He describes her as an extraordinary archivist1 and as probably the best practitioner of the French archives. He deplores the ostracism she faces2. He takes two contributions from her on the Occupation and the postwar period. First, her work shows that historians were paid to rewrite the history of French employers under the Occupation. He speaks of this in 2012, during a radio programme devoted to Michel Clouscard3. Second, she shows that there was hardly any purge of collaborators after the war. He comes back to this point in 2019, while discussing a reply by Clouscard to C. Morilhat4. In both cases, he draws on her work during a discussion of Clouscard. In 2015, he also names her among the authors from his publisher who came to Saint-Dizier5. The passages are brief and do not deal with any specific book.
