Anne Frank Sacrifice

Anne matures throughout the course of her diary entries, moving from detailed accounts of basic activities to deeper, more profound thoughts about humanity and her own personal nature. “I know what I want, I have a goal, an opinion, I have a religion and love. Let me be myself and then I am satisfied. I know that I’m a woman, a woman with inward strength and plenty of courage.” This shows that Anne matures through the course of her diary, she considers herself as a woman rather than a young girl and sets goals for herself that she wants to achieve. Anne becomes more optimistic even after she feels misunderstood by everyone and feels completely alone.

“It's a wonder I haven't abandoned all my ideals, they seem so absurd and impractical. Yet I cling to them because I still believe in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.” (Anne Frank) Anne Frank was one of the many children who fell victim to the Holocaust during the World War II. Anne’s story is nothing short of a tragedy; she died at the early age of fifteen from Typhus while being held by the Nazi Regime, in the concentration camp Bergen-Belsen. Before dying, Anne and her family went into hiding and lived secretly in her father's office building in the Netherlands. While living in the “Annex,” a secret hiding place, she developed many interests such as reading and writing. Anne is famous because she is one of the best-known victims of the Holocaust, her story has been shared with millions in a publication of her diary, and through her writing’s she introduces many people to the massacre and its horror.

In her diary, Anne Frank famously wrote, “In spite of everything, I still believe people are good at heart.” She was inspired to say this by the people who helped her, her positivity that showed, and everyone in the secret annex. Anne Frank and all of the other Jews were forced to go to concentration camps of go into hiding due to Hitler who was anti semitic. While in the annex, she kept a diary and after she was killed in the concentration camps, later on, this diary was published. After that, a play was made from her diary that was called The Diary of Anne Frank. Consequently, people were exposed to the heartbreaking story of Anne Frank, her family, and her friends. The play really showed the emotions of the characters and

Don’t you hate it when your family and strangers treat you in a harsh way. Anne Frank was treated harshly by some people in the secret annex people would yell at her call her spoiled lazy and was always telling her what to do. But some people treated her nicely like Peter VanDaan and her dad in a way that made her feel loved by some people around her. Anne was a twelve year old girl when she was forced into hiding because she was a Jew in Nazi territory during WW2. Anne is treated by the people in the annex in many ways and that effects her character in such a way that changes her character.

"The Diary of Anne Frank" tells us a story about how her life as a Jew was drastically changing during the Holocaust and the start of World War II (WWII). She was a very intelligent young woman that had hopes and dreams. Anne was a normal teenager trying to find her way in life. All of that changed when the Nuremburg Race Laws were formed. Her father who was a World War I fighter hid his family and friends in a Secret Annex that was blended in with a normal neighborhood. As she lived for months in the Secret Annex, Frank had written her diary, full of her experiences in the Annex. Everything changed though, when she reached the end of her times in the Annex.

She and seven other people had to hide in a secret annex Prinsengracht 263 in Amsterdam. Anne received a diary on her 13th birthday and wrote about all the little things that had happened to her throughout the day.

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,

Although she did not survive to see the end of the war. Her legacy has lived on and has made her a Standout in the Jewish faith because of her close and intimate relationship with God in a time where many blamed him, The fact that she has always tried to be optimistic and put her best foot forward even when things go terribly wrong, and lastly her high level of maturity has made her a source of inspiration to all age groups. After two years of hiding in the secret annex The Nazis soon discovered Anne and her family, they were sent to a death camp.

    A young girl, Anneliese Marie Frank, receives an empty jar of a diary for her thirteenth birthday, amidst much political strife in her new home country of Netherlands. As a German-born Jew in hiding, Anne will eventually fill her diary with over 2 years of experiences of the Secret Annex.

Throughout history there have been many wars, as a result many people died. During WWII the Nazis decided to kill off an entire race/ religion of people. Most people die because they are Jews. Other people die sacrificing their lives to do what is right. Self-sacrifice is “giving up something you want or something you desire for the greater good or to help others.” In the book/play, “The Diary of Anne Frank” A woman named Miep Gies risked her non-Jewish, somewhat free, life to help Otto Frank’s family and more, to hide, and escape the grasp of the Nazis.

Anne was a very happy child before they had to go into hiding. Her father was an officer before Hitler got into power and the Franks were very wealthy because of it. She had plenty of friends and a lot of admirers. Her teachers would often call her a “Chatterbox”, because she would always talk in class. One time her teacher, “Mr. Keesing”, got fed up with Anne talking so much in class and decided to assign her free writing stories. The last story Anne wrote

Like I read to escape, Anne Frank uses her writing both as an escape from people and as a path to close the gap between her and the outside world. Anne Frank, to me, is an inspirational young Jewish woman and everything about her shines with vitality and buoyancy. Yet, unlike others such as Josephine Alibrandi, Anne is restricted from being able to show her full potential, and is never given the opportunity to become the young girl, daughter or friend that she wants to be, due to the unimaginable circumstances she is forced into by the Nazis. The last extract from the Diary of Anne Frank jumped out to me and caught my attention, leaving me in a glimpse of despair. The passage conveys the message that Anne’s identity as a Jewish girl was hard
