Self-Sacrifice In The Diary Of Anne Frank

After living for years in an awful war that weighed heavily on her soul, I felt despair for Irene’s inability to rejoin her family. Irene then needed a place to go to escape persecution by the Soviet Union for her partisan crimes since her family would be in danger if she looked for them. The irony in her choosing to go to Germany disguised as a Jewish refugee almost made me laugh because of its

Mr. and Mrs. van Daan and their son Peter (who is a few years older than Anne) are also in hiding with the Franks. Anne’s adolescence is spent hidden from the outside world. She’s cooped up in tiny rooms, tiptoeing around during the day. After almost 2 years in hiding they are discovered and deported to concentration camps. Anne’s father, Otto Frank, is the only one of the eight people to survive. After her death Anne becomes world famous because of the diary she wrote while in hiding. Miep Gies is a Dutch woman who assists the annex residents with food, clothing, books, and companionship. She cheerfully assists them with the things they need and pitches in to give them holidays. Along with Elli, she retrieves and saves Anne's diary from the floor after the annex residents are arrested (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miep_Gies). Miep Gies and her husband took action and helped their Jewish friends. This situation affected their daily lives in many different ways. The fact that Miep and her husband helped the Jews, knowing that they

She would visit the ghetto where thousands of kids were being put to work and brutally punished.

World War II was a time of crisis and genocide for Nazi Germany. Many jews were sent to concentration camps where they were most likely murdered. For some jews they went into hiding to escape the Nazis. A girl named Anne Frank and her family were Jewish and hid in the Secret Annex from 1942-1944 when they were eventually caught. The Secret Annex was located in a warehouse where a German family helped the Franks and another Jewish family, the van Pels. Each day they had to be quiet in the mornings to make sure the warehouse workers did not hear them. People who helped the jews put their lives in danger is if they were caught, they also would be sent to a concentration camp to receive the same fate. They provided food, clothes, and books for

Well I think if Anne would of died the diary would not get published and it would not be famous like it is know. I feel like nothing would've happened if she lived with the journal.This was like good because it got published and people got too here the story of her life. Even know she ain't here u can still read her diary the is pretty indepth. I thought the book was pretty good. So I think she did live beyond her death because people all over the world red it and it makes you realize how good our life is now. I think anne had a pretty good life during the holocaust because at least she was with her family instead of like being in a different place without you family. If they would of survived the war oi think anne would of just kept the diary

In the play, The Diary of Anne Frank, by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett, they were able to portray the theme of compassion very well. Compassion is a way to show a willingness to help others, the capacity to forgive. One reason on how Anne shows compassion is in act 1, scene 5, how she makes Hannukah gifts for everyone. She found something that each person was somewhat interested in, and tried to make a gift of everything she found. “I’ve got something… Presents!”

Think about being trapped in an attic for two years. Not being able to go outside,limited amount of food, never being able to get away from each other. This is what the Frank family,VanDaan family,and Dussel had to deal with in the Diary of Anne Frank by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett. Heroism can be defined in many ways but in order to be a hero in this situation you need to be brave,courageous,bold and fearless. There are a lot of characters who show heroism.

Throughout her time in the “Secret Annexe,” (what she called their hiding space) Anne grew from a hot-headed child into a smart young woman. In the beginning of the book, only 2 months after going into hiding, she writes that feels grateful that her and her family have been spared the fate of some of her friends, however this also makes her feel guilty, because she can’t save those who didn’t get the chance to go into hiding. In her diary, on November 19, 1942, she wrote,“We’re so fortunate here, away from the turmoil. We wouldn’t have to give a moment’s thought to all this suffering if it weren’t for the fact that we’re so worried about those we hold dear, whom we can no longer help. I feel wicked sleeping in a warm bed, while somewhere out there my dearest friends are dropping from exhaustion or being knocked to the ground.” (paragraph 5 pg 55)

“How can we expect righteousness to prevail when there is hardly anyone willing to give up himself up individually to a righteous cause? Such a fine, sunny day and I have to go, but what does my death matter, if through us, thousands of people are awakened and stirred into action?” - Last words of Sophie Schroll before her execution by the Nazis. During the Holocaust, having courage was needed if you wanted to survive. Without courage during the Holocaust, one wouldn’t have the strength and the hope to continue believing that everything would get better and that they would be safe. As a result of social injustice, the character that displays the most courage is Mr. Frank for The Diary of Anne Frank. Mr. Frank shows courage due to the fact that he is perseverant, selfless, and how he always sees the good in things.

World War II was a catastrophe that affected many Jewish people’s lives across all of Western Europe. One individual who personally documented this experience was Anne Frank. She was a Jewish teenager living in Holland during World War II. Once the Germans began to take Jewish people to concentration camps, Anne and her family had to go into hiding so that they would not be discovered. As the war went on, many events affected Anne’s daily activities and morale. Anne began to document these events and as time went on it became obvious from her entries how much the war changed her. Anne’s situation was different than many other Jewish people during this time because most Jewish people were being killed or tortured in concentration camps while Anne was in hiding.

comparison I can think of is when I moved to middle school. I was the

The events recounted in Anne Frank’s Diary took place during World War 11. By 1933, the strongest party in Germany had gained ultimate power with Hitler under their command. Hitler was Germany’s dictator who spread his gospel of racial hatred through politics. While poverty and unemployment were at an all time high he launched a campaign of anti-Semitism. Hitler’s main target was the Jews, claiming that they were “racially inferior.” He developed an idea of a Master Aryan Race, the need to rid Germany of “inferior people”, such as Jews and Gypsies, and the need to expand Germany’s borders. In doing this, he caused many Jews to abandoned their homes and go into total isolation. The Frank family
