The Diary Of Anne Frank And The Jewish And Armenian Holocaust

Anne and her family has very hard lives during the Holocaust. They treat you so poorly in the concentration camps. The fact that they hid for a very long time instead of registering, made them prisoners so they were treated even worse.

“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.

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.

The Holocaust, a morbid atrocity that made people question humanity, was the cause of millions of deaths. One of those victims of this brutality was Anne Frank, a young Jewish girl who hid from the Nazis along with her family. Although she was merely ordinary, Anne Frank kept a diary which became a significant, historical artifact in the modern world as it details her account of concealing her identity from the outside world. Her story, told in an innocent perspective, allows individuals to reflect the dreadful events of the Holocaust and acknowledge how far we have come since then. Even though she died along with millions of other victims from the Holocaust, her spirit still exists thanks to her articulately written words in her diary which is now considered one of the most famous works of literature. Anne Frank’s legacy still lives on today because her story provides a primary source of a dark period in history, insightful contemplation of humanity, and motivation for people to stand up against unjustified persecution.

The article, “The Girl Who Lived Forever”, by Kristen Lewis, describes the hardships of Anne Frank, a Jewish girl, and her family, who like millions of other Jews, perished at the hands of the Nazis during WWII. Anne Frank lived during one of the most terrifying and horrific historical events the world has ever seen, the Holocaust. She and her family managed to survive for 2 long years in hiding, by living in a secret annex behind her father’s pectin factory. In August of 1944, the SS captured Anne and the others hiding in the annex. All but Otto Frank, Anne’s father, perished in the Nazi concentration camps. Though they lived through unspeakable and unimaginable challenges, Anne, her family and their friends showed a tremendous amount of courage trying to defy Hitler and his evil regime.

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.

“Conflict is drama, and how people deal with conflict shows you the kind of people they are.” The thought expressed by actor Stephen Moyer portrays that conflict brings out a reaction from people, but they may not always be the same reaction. Being victims of the Holocaust Elie Wiesel and Anne Frank have different responses with some similarities. Both characters have a very similar response to write about the (hardships) they faced or were facing. Although Wiesel and Frank share the will to write about the (hardships), key differences developed throughout there (hardship). Wiesel lost faith in God, and as time lapsed Wiesel’s viewpoint on the future grew negative. On the other hand, Anne Frank stayed Optimistic about the future and found hope and passion through Peter.

Now even though Anne Frank and Gerda Klein were different people and they had different personalities, their lives had things in common. For example, They were both taking to a concentration camp and they were both planning what they were going to do once they were saved. They both had high hopes for their future, like Anne wanted to be a great writer who would be remembered even after she died. Both of their friends either died or were killed at the concentration camp. They were both surviving on little or no food for years. Gerda was a human skeleton when she was found by the american soldiers. These were just a few of the major similarities that I found.

Discrimination is now becoming a well-known term around the world; many acknowledge it from the time they came across: sexism, racism, ageism, and the type Anne Frank came across, persecution. Anne Frank was a thirteen-year-old Jewish girl who was hiding from the German Army or the Nazi’s, as they are better recognized back then. Her life story consisted of constantly escaping and being in isolation from those who wanted her dead; it was a difficult time to live in. Anne Frank was attacked because of her differences; Adolf Hitler (leader of the Nazi’s) was killing anyone who was not classified as “pure” or part of the “superior race”.

Anne Frank and Rachel Joy Scott did not live in the same time period. They were two completely different people. Although they both went through very different things they still had several things in common. Such as they both died because of the kind of people they were. In the years 1933-1945 Jews were being killed because they were simply Jews. They did not meet the qualifications of Adolf Hitler so he sought them out to destroy them. In Columbine High School two boys, Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris killed students because they did not fit into the perfect world they had in mind. In fact, Eric and Dylan loved Hitler. This is the reason why they Chose to do the school shooting on April 20, 1999, which is Adolf Hitler’s birthday. These two

Miriam Korber and Alice Ehrmann have many similarities as far as their experiences during the Holocaust. They both see unthinkable horrors in the form of “hunger, cold, illness, filth, death, humiliation, and despair” (Korber 245). Unlike the six million Jews killed by the Holocaust, Alice and Miriam both survive, which led me to examine how their different experiences and personalities help them survive. They both face their emotions directly and use their diaries to vent which may be part of the reason they survive. On the other hand, Anne Frank always has hope and is naive to some of the horrors that others are experiencing. In this horrible time Anne Frank has privilege compared to Miriam and Alice who don’t have a support system or

On January 30, 1933, Adolf Hitler won the heart of president Paul von Hindenburg who appointed him to chancellor of Germany, but little did he understand this decision would later cost Germany over 6 million deaths and the title of the largest genocide in the world. This genocide was directed toward those who were Jewish who were persecuted or forced into labor because of this. Among the Jews at this time, the Frank and Van Pels family along with a friend inhabited an annex that was attached to Otto Frank’s business. Inhabiting this annex in order to escape the grasp of the Nazi’s would ultimately affect each person in a different way. While hiding in the “Secret Annex” Anne Frank and the other Jews suffered through the poor conditions of the hiding spot and were affected physically,

Anne Frank and Martin Luther King Jr. were born in the same year, yet people associate them as being in completely separate parts in history. Anne Frank was a woman who went through the horrors of the holocaust and wasn’t lucky enough to survive the brutality and torture. When you look back on the accounts of treatment of the people in the concentration camps, you see more stories about the men’s lives. People seem to only hear about the men, but what about the women and how they were treated during this time as well. Women had it worse than men during the holocaust because they were more susceptible to rape, they were immediately brutalized and killed for being pregnant, and they were killed for simple

The individual personalities of Anne Frank and Irene Gut affected the way they were able to view the holocaust. During the holocaust, Anne Frank, a young girl hiding in a secret attic, had a bright and cheery personality. Her personality affected the way she saw the holocaust. Anne loved her family, so she constantly joked around and tried to cheer them up, even though it often did not work. People interpreted her bright personality as a sign that she was childish and needed to be watched. Therefore, Anne was babied and was taken care of. On the other hand, Irene had a

During the devastating time of World War II, a Jewish teenage girl wrote a diary about the gruesome events she witnessed, this diary was named, Diary of a Young Girl, Anne Frank. Anne Frank lived in Holland and went into hiding when her sister, Margot, got a letter to go to a reception camp. The Franks faced terrifying moments during hiding. They witnessed war outside their window and stayed in the same house without even going outside for about two years.To add on, the Franks had to keep in mind how every day they could be arrested or even die. Sadly Anne and her family are arrested and are sent to Auschwitz, a concentration camp where she would later die. While in hiding, the Franks and the Van Daans, who were also in hiding with them,
