Analysis : The Diary Of Anne Frank

Staying in an annex for two years without going outside may have been uncomfortable, but it gave everyone a better chance at survival. Character interaction, stage directions, and Anne’s diary are three significant ways historical events are portrayed in The Diary of Anne Frank. This play shows the reader that history can be written in many different

The first part of the diary starts with her being a regular girl having fun and turns into a girl going into hiding with seven other people. In addition, she has to deal with relation problems with her mom, sister, and the people she is in hiding with. The problems begin when eight people are confined in a small area and everybody begins to irritate and annoy one another. Anne was especially concerned with herself and with her attitude towards the others in the group. She's mainly concerned with her mother who always treats her like baby. Mr. Frank tires to ease the quarrels between them by telling Anne to help out more around the house, but Anne stubbornly declines preferring to concentrate more on her studies. She especially gets plenty of confrontations with Mrs. Van Daan who thinks she is a spoiled little girl. Mrs. Van Daan constantly tells Anne’s father, “ If Anne were my daughter.” Anne’s respond to this in her diary was, “Thank heavens I’m not!” Of course

In Brett Kaufman’s painting, Anne Frank outside looking in, he is implying how Frank never got to have a chance to live her life due to having to hide away from the war going on all around her. Kaufman is relating his 1995 painting to the way she lived. Anne lived in the annex above her father’s work until her and her family got caught. Kaufman’s painting is related to a diary written by Anne Frank while living in the annex. The diary is all of her days, her nights, and her school. While people were below the annex working Frank sat in one spot and either read, or wrote in her diary. After being caught, and dying, her father, being the only one who survived, had found her diary, and published the writing as a book in 1947. Kaufman’s painting and Anne 's Diary relate to a song written in 1998 by Neutral Milk Hotel. The song is singing about the death of Anne Frank, and how close she was to surviving the war. The concept is of how much Anne Franks’ story impacted the world. Anne Frank Outside Looking In, a 1995 painting by Brett Kaufman, a novel, The Diary of Anne Frank, written by Anne Frank, but later published in Amsterdam in 1947, and a 1998 song “Holland 1945” performed by Neutral Milk Hotel, but written by Jeff Mangum explore the idea of how an individual wanted to get out and explore the world, and even

Dussel's news. Mr. Dussel is one of the new people that join Anne's family in hiding. When Mr. Dussel moved in, he told the Franks and Van Daans about everything he knew about outside. When Anne heard that her friend was take away to the concentration camp, she felt heartbroken and started to tear up. She wasn’t a person who got emotional but after hearing the horrible news, she felt miserable.

The Holocaust was a time of war where many families were separated from one another and many had died from this tragic event. Although, from the book “Diary of Anne Frank” a Jewish girl named Anne that had been affected by the Holocaust had said, “In spite of everything, I still believe people are really good at heart.” Even though Anne and her family faced many hardships during the Holocaust Anne still saw the good in it all, and after reading the book I have to agree with Anne’s quote. One of the main reasons of why I am siding with Anne is because of Peter’s actions throughout the book and how his actions rapidly changed once Anne showed kindness to him. However, I can see how some people may disagree with Anne’s quote throughout Mr. Van Daan’s horrible actions throughout the book.

In the late 1930s and early 1940s the world experienced very traumatic events. Adolf Hitler comes to power in Germany. He banned all political parties, except the Nazis. Two of the families that were affected by his changes were the Franks and the Van Daans. Anne Frank was a member of the Frank family. Her family and the Van Daans experienced what was happening personally. During the time that she was forced to go into hiding, she kept a diary with her. The diary has become very important item for learning about the events that happened. Historical events are reflected in the play “The Diary of Anne Frank” by showing how what’s happening in the outside world affects the families that have had to go into hiding.

The central focus and purpose of the content that I will be teaching in this learning segment is to “Analyze the extent to which a filmed or live production of a story or drama stays faithful to or departs from the text or script, evaluating the choices made by the director or actors.” The 8th grade curriculum has chosen The Diary of Anne Frank, play by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett.

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.

If Mr. Van Daan wasn’t in the community at all, the Franks probably would’ve had a better chance at survival through the annex. This play takes place with 8 people hiding away in an attic to be safe from the Nazis, this is all happening during World War two. The title of this play is The Diary of Anne Frank by Frances Good and Albert Hackett. Mr. Van Daan was business partners with Mr. Frank and they were exceptionally close, yet he is still an egocentric and greedy man. Despite how the Fanks welcome Mr. Van Daan into their home, he still betrays the trust their trust by being selfish and greedy.

In “The Diary of Anne Frank” the tone is sad because the theme of the adapted play is acceptance. During World War II, Jews are not accepted by Adolf Hitler and the Nazis; in fact, hundreds of Jews are being killed daily. Anne and her “family” realize what is going on when Dussel joins them in hiding, “Hundreds are being deported . . . people that you and I know . . . the Hallensteins . . . the Wessels . . . ” (Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett, 727). The “family” begins to notice how lucky they are to have been in hiding, how different it will be for them if they survive, and also how dangerous it is for the rest of the Jewish society. Survival for the Jews had been difficult because the Nazis wanted all Jews dead; in relation,

The Holocaust is one of the deadliest genocides in the world with more than eleven million deaths, six million of which were Jews, by the fascist German Nazis in the 1930s and 1940s. The Diary of Anne Frank is a classic piece of literature that has taught numerous minds about the life of a Jew named Anne Frank in hiding during World War II and the Holocaust. This iconic diary has been rewritten and formatted into a play by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett. In the play, Anne Frank hides in a loft, in the building where her father used to work, with seven other people, three being her family. One of the residents in the loft includes Peter Van Daan, the son of the Van Daans. While living in the “Secret Annex” for more than two years, Peter is seen as a dynamic character who was first shy and introverted, then evolved into a bad-tempered and violent person.

Otto Frank returns to a secret hiding place in which he and his family have lived during the first part of the Holocaust in Amsterdam. His friend, Miep Gies, has saved a diary that his daughter Anne kept during that time.

They all hope that they can make it out alive but they know that their chances of survival are very slim. Even though they are afraid that they will burn to death or be brutally

Have you ever been shot at? Have you ever been in a war? Every single character in “The Diary of Anne Frank” and “Freedom Writers” could’ve been able to say yes to that question before they even entered high school. Anne, the girl who wrote in the diary, tried to survive the Holocaust. The kids from “Freedom Writers”, were literally fighting for their lives in the middle of a gang war. Being forced to grow up so fast like these kids had to cause different problems for each of them. However, “The Diary of Anne Frank” and “Freedom Writers” teach readers that to thrive in life you have to find a balance between humility and pride.

What is your reason for doing the right thing? Is it to be heroic, feed your ego or simply because you should? Both Eva and Anne both face the same question.
