    Anne Frank is someone who influenced history long after she was gone, because of her courage, bravery, and willpower that got here and her family through the tough times up until they were seized. Though Anne died at age fifteen in one of the camps, we still see her today as such an accepting human being throughout her life. In one of her very last entries Anne stated, “In spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart.” This entry proves her beliefs beyond measure that all humans are good people and mean for the best in their own lives. This statement alone expresses everything people need to know about Anne and who she was as a person this shows a maturity level way beyond her years as a young girl of only thirteen…

    She first illustrates the common mother-daughter arguments through teenage years. She describes the “constant defiance in the spirit of person conviction cleft a schism between my mother and sister/ they clawed their womanhoods out of each other by handfuls of hair and heart” (Line 1-5). These lines make apparent the complicated, but strong, relationship between her mother and sister.…

    | Anne says this in frustration after Mrs. Van Daan yells at her for spilling milk on her coat. This expresses another Anne because it suggests that Anne sees herself changing, that she envisions a different self. I feel that Anne says this because to her, everybody in the Annex shows more favoritism to Margot then her, especially her mother. On the outside it seems Anne can’t always control her temper, as she strives to be more like Margot, who is patient and calm. On the inside, she is jealous of Margot, wanting to have more of an attitude like hers, and convey a better personality to others, contrary to what she’s done. Also Anne is younger, so it is understandable that she'd look up to an older sibling. I can relate to this because many times in our family, I feel as if my parents favor my older sibling over me. I have the same feelings as expressed in this quote, as it is hard to be more mature than somebody older. This quotation suggests change in Anne, as she herself wants to change, and be more socially civil rather than her normal self. Though it conveys negativity on Anne’s character, as she is losing her temper, it also shows maturity, as she is maturing. This quote shows that she is maturing because she now realizes her impact on others, and wants to be more like Margot, who is quite a role model to her. Some questions that occurred were: * Will Anne keep maturing as she is already? *…

    In Anne Bradstreet’s seventeenth century poem, “The Author to Her Book” she compares the awareness of nurturing and properly raising a child to the writing and revising of a book. The speaker is caught between conflicting love of her book and shame of its weaknesses, both of which are expressed in the metaphor and in the tone – both expressing the true mammalian nature of her motherhood, ultimately creating a tone of sincerity and loyalty.…

    One of the most important relationships Anne forms is with Marilla. Although she does not want to admit it, Marilla grew fond of Anne fairly quickly, but in the film, she gives Anne a “trial period” and even threatens to send her to live with Mrs. Blewett, a wicked woman. Anne’s personality did not flourish until she felt secure knowing she would be staying at Green Gables, so the “trial period” weakened her high-strung personality during the beginning of the film. Another relationship, which was embellished in the film, is the rivalry between Anne and Gilbert. Their relationship in the film is romanticized and scenes of them are added, which did not occur in the novel. She often walked past him with her head held high and disdainfully, so a newly added scene about her approaching Gilbert at a ball in hopes of him asking her to dance is out of character for Anne. Despite the differences of their relationship in the film, they are able to look past their earlier encounters and form a great…

    However, Anne did not have the strong feminist upbringing that Paul received; rather, Anne was often criticized for her intelligence, looks, and headstrong personality, being told that she should be more like a girl. In the beginning to middle of the book, she opposes typical womanly activities of the time, dreading her chores and rejecting the boys who come to suit. Like Paul, Anne pursues a higher education, but the only degree available to her was a teaching certificate, unlike Paul’s biology degree. Abandoning her education in favor of caring for her unmarried adopted mother, however, is a move that Paul probably would have disagreed with. Similar in personality but different in actions and opinions, Paul and Anne were two sides of the same…
