Anne Frank Diary Analysis

In the first chapter of the Diary of Anne Frank, from dates June 14, 1942, to July 9, 1942, she starts to first talk about naming her diary “kitty”(page 3). She then goes on to talk about how she enjoyed her last weeks of freedom and why her father decided to go into hiding. This was all started when the family received a letter requesting the presence of her “sister in a concentration camp” (page 16). Her father realizes it 's a trick to put her into a concentration camp and forces them into the secret rooms behind the bookcase where Anne family and friends would begin hiding. These first few entries are staring to describe the family 's struggles and how joyful and willing Anne really is.

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.

Anne Frank was a Jew during WWII. She was born June 12, 1929 to Edith and Otto Frank. She had a passion for writing and wanted to start her own novel. She was given a journal for her thirteenth birthday on June 12, 1942. Her first entry was June 14, 1942. A few pages into Anne’s journal Anne states, “It’s an odd idea for someone like me to keep a diary; not only because I have never done so before, but because it seems to me that neither I-nor for that matter anyone else-will be interested in the unbosomings of a thirteen-year-old schoolgirl. (1)” The rest of the book is about her experiences in the “Secret Annex”.

The play The Diary of Anne Frank was written by Albert Hackett and Frances Goodrich in the 50’s after extensive research and interviews and won the Pulitzer Prize For Drama. It follows the difficulties that were faced by Anne Frank in the attic annex, where she lived for two years with her family and four other Jews. Night is a memoir written by survivor of the concentration camps, Elie Wiesel, and explains the conditions, labor, and struggles that he and others experienced in the camps. Elie faced more severe hardships than Anne during the Holocaust because Anne was in the attic annex, where she was better fed, safe, and with her family, while Elie was living with poor conditions, hard labor, and dehumanization in the concentration camps.

Anne Frank, was born on June 12, 1929, and was 12 or 13 when Hitler raided Amsterdam and her family had to go into hiding. Anne’s family along with another Jewish family were covering for two years in a “Secret Annex” in the back of Frank’s father’s company building. Grievously, someone noted the German police and they were seized on August 4, 1944 and sent to a concentration camp. There her father was disconnected from the rest of the family. Soon her mother became sick and died. A few months after their mom passed Anne and her sister Margot both had typhus. Margot passed away in February and Anne followed shortly thereafter in March 1945. Their father, Otto was the only member of their family to survive the Holocaust. She was only 15 years old when she died. To me it is really sad that a young innocent girl’s life was ripped short because she was a Jew. She never had a chance to have a childhood of liberty like she would have had today.

The Diary of Anne Frank consisted of ten main characters. There were two different families in the annex and two people who worked in the warehouse who helped the families get their supplies. Mr. Frank and his family needed help getting into Amsterdam from Germany. Mr. Van Dann, a man who had already lived in Amsterdam, helped Mr. Frank to get a warehouse in Amsterdam. From the minute Mr. Frank got to his new home he was preparing the annex for his family. Mr. Frank knew he needed to repay Mr. Van Daan for what he had done for him, so he invited the Van Danns to stay with them in hiding.

Anne Frank was a 12 year old Jewish girl when she went into hiding. In 1942, Anne and her family moved to a secret annex behind a bookshelf in an office building. At that time, Hitler ruled Germany and wanted to extract the Jews and ship them to concentration camps. Here, they were forced into labor and then they were eventually murdered. In their two years of hiding, Anne showed many positive characteristics, despite the Jews going through such a harsh and deadly time. Sadly, Anne passed away at a concentration camp after two years of hiding on March 12th, 1945. However, her diary has inspired many people around the world. One of Anne's characteristics is optimism.

Have you ever heard of the Holocaust? The Holocaust was a terrible time in history when Adolf Hitler was torturing many innocent Jews. He put them in concentration camps, but many tried to hid just like Anne Frank and her family. Anne Frank who was Jew, has a famous quote that says “In spite of everything, I still believe people are really good at heart.” Even though throughout the “Diary of Anne Frank” we see that people are not always the best they could be, I agree with Anne and believe that everyone is still good at heart. One overall reason I chose that people are really good at heart are the acts of kindness Peter has throughout the book to Anne. However, I do know that there are two sides of an argument, I can see how some might

If there was a massive battle happening a mere three days drive from you, would you notice?
