Analysis Of Hana's Suitcase And Charlotte's Web

One of the ideas explored in Hitler’s Daughter is about the dangers of making generalisations about people based on their race, gender, family connections, etc. In the story Hitler hated the Jews, he blamed everything on them and killed them or made them work for him. Hitler started a war because of this, and the war had killed many innocent people. This is shown when one of the side characters Johannes Wilhem Schmidt tells Heidi, the main character how the Russians killed his sister Helga. Also, when one of the soldiers that were meant to guard Heidi got his arm blown off he died. This

Brave gentile uncle Ludvik comes to pick up the two children into his house.

The girls are taken in by an older couple, Jules and Genevieve. While under their care, Rachel becomes severely ill and requires medical care. The doctor is a Nazi, and he realizes that Rachel escaped from the camp. He reports Rachel to the officials, causing them to taker her away from Jules and Genevieve. Although she is helpless and near death, the German guards remove her from the home, “[Sarah] heard... Rachel’s thin scream all the way from the top of the house. Rachel torn from the bed by the Germans. Rachel moaning, too feeble to fight back” (129). Rachel is not only denied the right to be cared for by the doctor, but is also mercilessly dragged away from her deathbed to die in a concentration camp, simply because she is Jewish. Having this label, in the Nazi’s minds, equates to being subhuman.

It shows that not everyone is raised in the same environment and not everyone is raised in cities. Some people are able to do certain things where as some people can not. Every person is not made the same, some may have disabilities like Nell, for instance, she has a speech problem. It is only because she grew up secluded from the rest of the world and that was the only way she knew how to talk. Towards the end of the movie, Nell made friends and was able to socialize a lot easier than before. It also seemed as if she had been taught how to talk normal because she said "remember that" to the little girl when they were by the pond. This shows to never judge a book by its cover and that even the worst situations can be

One of my character in my book is Korinna is a thirteen old girl. she is a cheerful, life-loving, stubborn to honor her beloved Fatherland (a nickname for Germany). Germany she is an active member of the local Jungmadel, a Nazi youth group. Korianna is being taught to hate Jews, hate anyone that was "different", and to turn in information on anyone who was behaving as if they were not a "loyal" German. She believes that Hitler is helping the world by dealing with what he calls the "Jewish problem." When Korinna discovers that her parents are secretly hiding Jews in their house and helping them to escape the city, she is shocked. And her loyalties are put to an extreme test when a neighbor tips off the Gestapo. Korinna blames her parents for

Hanneli ‘Hannah’ Pik-Goslar was much like other Jewish children in Germany in the 1930’s, she was shunned, not allowed to go to the movies or ice skate, and was forced to attend a special school. Most of Germany was segregated against the Jewish and against her family. Hannah was born in Germany in 1928 to Ruth Klee and Hans Goslar, by the time she’s 5 years old she and her parents are already on the run from Nazi’s. When she’s 12 her sister Gabi was born. She is already friends with Anne when she hears they’ve fled to Switzerland. This is not true as they have just started their two year hiding period in the Secret Annex. In 1942 Hannah’s mom dies in childbirth with a stillborn baby. While her dad managed to get passport, they were still arrested

Many, many people suffered during the Holocaust war. The Jews in particular were in grave danger. The drama ‘Anne Frank’ outlines so many ways that this historical event caused a shift in the mood of the characters and their relationships. Before the Holocaust, Anne Frank was just an ordinary Jewish girl living in Germany. A German leader named Adolf Hitler developed a plan to destroy the Jews and to rule over the specific places where they lived. What Hitler did to these poor Jews, and the sheer terror they endured at the hands of this Nazi leader is purely unfathomable.

Conflict was one of the many elements Chiger used to express the families’ experiences during the holocaust; for example she used man versus nature to express the families against the sewer conditions, man versus society to show how they had to go against Nazi Germany because of their religion, and man versus self to show how she, as a seven year old girl, had to go against her own mind because of the persecutions, pogroms, assassinations, etc. she had experienced. Krystyna was experiencing man versus self during a part in the book when she felt melancholy and was noncommunicative; to explain this further, “I could be philosophical at times...I was not self-aware… I could not put what I was feeling into words. I would not even try” (Chiger 222). Conflict, one of the major literary elements, is used a lot in The Girl in the Green Sweater; it is used to

Growing up in a wartime environment affects the identities, confidence and adolescence process for many people. In the books, The Diary of A Young Girl, Farewell to Manzanar, and Night, World War II accelerates Anne’s, Jeanne’s and Elie’s precious maturity and coming of age process. World War II, the Nazis and their identity of being Jewish forces Anne and Elie to grow up and mature much sooner than expected. For Jeanne Wakatsuki, World War II have a negative impact on Jeanne’s confidence and she starts to lose respect towards her Japanese heritage. All three of them are struggling to find out who they truly are. Anne Frank, Jeanne Wakatsuki and Elie Wiesel all are greatly affected by the war, but in different milieus and in

Aminata is traveling in a coffle when a group of children of another village starts throwing rotten fruit and rocks at them, challenging how Aminata views justice and injustice. Aminata wonders why the children taunted them, as well why the villagers helped their captors instead of Aminata and the coffle, "And all these villagers who sell goods to the captors and stand guard over us at night? Why do they help these men?"(Hill 38). I connected this of the injustice the Jewish people have suffered in the holocaust. They were tortured and badly treated by people, those people viewed that the Jewish were a menace and that it was justice to bring them to a low level. This treatment towards the Jewish was harsh, similar to Aminata and her group, they had suffered severe treatment. In addition Aminata would have a similar view point on the holocaust as the Jewish, even at two different points in time, these two situations relate to each

Many people were hurt by Adolf Hitler's plans and one thing he achieved was killing six million Jewish people including children. Anne Frank and her family were one of them. They lived in a secret and tiny annex where Otto used to work. They started off just going to stay there for a few months till the Allied Forces could invade Holland but that didn’t work out. In the drama wrote by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett eight people crowded into annex for 2 long years not being able to go outside. Many historical events were impacted in the drama Anne Frank. Even though these problems took place outside of the secret annex it changed the mood and relationships of the character.

Anne Frank’s diary is one of the most famous examples of how the Jews were treated during Hitler reign of terror and dictatorship. Plus on top of the Germans it did not make anything better with everyone teasing her and being mean and rude to her. The worst part is her mother to her did not even seem like a mother because of how mean she was verbally or in Anne’s mind anyway. It is also weird how she actually got along better with her father. In fact it seemed as if Anne and her mother played favorites. I am making this essay to show how she also had to struggle with her own parents and not only in camp. So with that being said I will show you how her different relationships with her parents improve or decrease while time goes by.

After reading this book, I think the people of the past life is very painful. A child named Ellen was discriminated against because of the Jews, and many things were made by the Jews. Although this is unfair to them, they just can only silently bear this pressure. Fortunately, Annemarie's help, so that they spent a lot of difficulties. but also the smooth delivery of them to a safe island. After reading this story, I think Annemarie is very brave and kind, if I am her. I can not do so much. This story also let me know their pain, but fortunately Annemarie help them to escape smoothly. The current war has been reduced, but there are still many countries. Quarrel is inevitable, but their own greed. So if you can reduce their own desires, perhaps
