The memories of ‘Anne’ are corrected while spoken, and the photographs are proven as unreliable as ‘Anne’s’ mother fails to recognise her daughter in the picture she has sent from her holiday. When she glances closer she realises the photograph is simply ‘dots and pixels’, and does not resemble her daughter. Crimp satirises the historical biographies of people are made of reconstructions of memories, opinions and interpretations, while objects, photographs and videos are the only concrete evidence of the past.The speaker creates reflections of Anne through various medias such as photographs, videos, film scripts, suicide notes as well as personal belongings such as medicine bottles or her ashtray.

The objectification of woman has been a highly controversial topic and the source of feminist outrage for centuries and is highly exploited in Attempts on Her Life. The fungibility of the female character emphasises the notion that women are merely seen as objects. Throughout the play ‘Anne’ is described as objects, embodying a ‘chalice’ or ‘rugby ball’ as her face held by a male lover. In Scenario 6 she is characterised as a tree going on to tell her parents that she wants to ‘be a machine’ a car or an automatic pistol, satirising the message of media’s constructed views to see females as mere objects. Crimp goes one step further to create a limitless identity by the addition of a motor vehicle. His contemporary idea theorised ‘If Anny can be a car, she can be anything’ and had since revealed in an interview that the moment he included ‘Anny' into the play was when the content and structure fully formed. Scenario 7 entitled ‘The New Anny’ does not show a new female but instead introduces a new brand of car called ‘Anny'. The car commercial highlights the sexualisation of the female body in advertising by comparing the female body to the body of a car. The representation of the car reduces the female to commodity status, signifying the objectification of women in modern society and specifically media and advertising. Crimp had noticed the growing trend and new-found

The Holocaust was one of the most tragic event in history when about six million Jews lost their lives to the Nazi. It was a very tragic and evil thing that the Nazi’s did. However, a Jewish girl, Anne Frank, said this: “In spite of everything, I still believe people are really good at heart.” Through everything Anne and her family went through, she always saw the good in things. After reading the play about her diary, I would have to agree with Anne’s quote. One of the main reasons I am agreeing with Anne is the kind and selfless thing that she did for her family and the people in the Annex on Hanukkah. However, I can see why you might disagree with Anne and myself by Mr. Van Daan and his selfish and unkind actions.

Kesey highlights two distinctions between the roles of women in his novel ‘One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest’. He places women in two categories, the ‘Ballcutters’ and ‘Whores’ . The ‘Ballcutters’ are presented to have a dominant role over the men within the ‘Combine’ and challenges their masculinity, resulting in them being personified as machines. This is demonstrated when Bromden describes the ‘tip of each finger the same colour as her lips. Funny orange. Like the tip of a soldering iron’ of Nurse Ratched. Bromden compares the complexion of her fingers and lips with a metal iron, suggesting not only is she machine like, but also has the physical appearance of a metal machine. The ‘Whores’ are Candy and Sandy who are submissive and this stems from the introduction of the contraceptive pill, as ‘feminists encouraged sexual exploitation with multiple partners and claimed sexual pleasure as a woman’s right’, Thus, resulting into them being presented as sexual beings fulfilling the sexual appetite of men.
Norman Mailer once stated, "For what does it mean to be a hero? It requires you to be prepared to deal with forces larger than yourself." This quotation means that there are some things that certain people will not be able to face head on. It takes them a while to physically and mentally prepare themselves for what forces lie ahead. This quotation is valid because there are going to be certain things people just can't face or they aren't strong enough to face them. The film, The Fighting Sullivans and the film The Diary of Anne Frank prove the interpretation because both of the films are about a group of people who have to deal with forces that are bigger than themselves. The film The Diary of Anne Frank supports the critical lens about Norman Mailer's quote because they had to go into hiding, hiding from the Germans which in this case were the bigger force. The first
Specific Purpose: To inform my audience about the life of Anne Boleyn and the impact she had on the English monarchy.
Anne Moody has gone through such an exceptionally eventful life that she was able to transform it into a powerful book, "A Coming of Age in Mississippi." All of Anne's childhood not only prepared her for her involvement in the movement during the 1960's, but also kept her inspired and motivated. Anne Moody sees a lot of ups and downs, which causes her to have depressing set backs from time to time. As told through out the book, describing her first twenty-four-years, her uncertainty is justified, yet overall the book does tell a story of success, found not only in Anne's personal life but also in the country. By understanding that in order for the movement to be a success and for there to be hope in the future some drastic changes must
The ability to analyze and depict the elements that are portrayed in an image is a skill that is practical to own. In your educational career, throughout most subjects you are given hundreds of images to look at. Some are simple and straightforward, and others have a much more deeper meaning to what is really going on. Having the skill to analyze an image and depict all the elements gives you a clearer and broader sense of what is going on. For example the image I have chosen to analyze is of a young jewish girl by the name of Anne Frank who wrote a diary about hiding with her family in Amsterdam during World War II.
Anne and the others are able to find hope and enjoyment amidst their suffering by believing things will get better, realizing they are lucky in the position they are in, and by dancing, singing, talking, and doing other things that they like to do. Anne and the others also find hope and enjoyment amidst their suffering by hoping they will be able to go back to what they liked to do, of which they couldn't do since they were in hiding. The narrator says, "Wonderful news! The Allies have landed in Africa. Pim says that we can look for an early finish to the war. Just for fun he asked each of us what was the first thing we wanted to do when we got out of here. Mrs. Van Daan longs to be home with her own things, her needle-point chairs, the Beckstein piano her father gave her . . . the best that money could buy.
The end of Anne's story makes me feel very frustrated because Anne suffered in the annex for two years but was still captured by the Nazi's. It would have saved Anne so much suffering if she was captured by the Nazi's early on and be killed earlier. Anne and her family worked very hard to stay alive during the Holocaust, but it was of no use because most of them died in concentration camps. On the other hand, it is pure luck that Anne was given a diary and people all around the world can read it today. Anne's diary makes people feel more connected to the Holocaust and the horrors of living through
Anne wanted freedom more than anything, she wanted to see the sky and breathe the fresh air. She wanted to go back to school and do something with her life, she had motive in her life, not by nazi's or oppression, she just was naturally motivated to do something in her life. She did not allow the horrors of WWII to cause her positive attitude to falter. She did not use the negative energy of the war be her reason to keep holding on, she had it the endless sea of love in her heart, that she used for her motive. Even after her capture, her happiness never faded, she found things she liked about the concentration camp, she loved looking at the sky and being in the open air. When you take time to look around, you can easily find motive to succeed

Anne’s accomplishments in the movement are very indirect. Throughout the entire story Anne shows us a great deal of personal growth. Anne overcame some very tough challenges in the book Coming of Age in Mississippi leading her to become a very strong and independent activist. Although Anne’s efforts did not greatly impact the movement directly, they did have a great impact on her personal growth. Anne dedicated her life after college to being an activist, this helped her grow in many different ways. This essay will talk about how Anne’s efforts affected both the movement and Anne personally.
