Personal Response To Anne Frank's Life
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

    During World War II there was so much evil and violence. Jews were being burned in stoves. They had to hide from the Nazis. Despite all this Anne Frank still managed to believe that “people are really good at heart.” This is not necessarily true. In The Diary of Anne Frank, Mr Van Daan is a very selfish man which means that he disproves Anne’s quote. The men in Night by Eli Wiesel also couldn’t care less about the Jews in the concentration camps. In the Journal Entries Anne’s belief is disproven because people are stealing food and beating people up. Not everyone is truly good at heart as we can see from these sources.…

    n the Diary of Anne Frank it shows how Anne Frank strived and wanted to stay alive. Anne Frank lived in fear and hiding. She kept a diary of how she faced each day like her last. She kept going even though it was tough. Her and her family never knew when they would be caught while hiding.This was very scary for the Franks. In an article written by James Ryan it shows how even when Anne died she wanted to live. A quote was used that Anne Frank said herself “I want to be useful or give pleasure to people around me who yet don’t really know me. I want to go on living even after my death.” Anne Frank wanted to be helpful and go on living after death. This shows the quote “just keep swimming” by how Anne never wanted to give up she wanted to live forever and push on. Ryan also wrote about how Anne was always positive.

    She has learned that through hard times she can still find the happiness in life and can focus on them. Anne did not just make it through challenging times, she thrived through challenging times. We all should notice that no matter what was going on, Anne was seeing the joy and good in not only life, but in people as well. She showed us who she really was through this life changing experience. Anne demonstrates that we should keep our head held high when we face the struggles of life. If Anne Frank can see the good in things while being persecuted, I know I can. I have learned from the Holocaust that no matter who you are, what you look like, your race, religion, or anything you can think of, we are equal. Now you are probably thinking, “shouldn’t she already know that?” The Holocaust has helped me to see it in a different way. It also showed me how cruel and selfish humans can be and how cruel and selfish I can be. A lesson all humans should know is that we are one. We are equal. Anne once said, “‘I don’t think of all the misery, but the beauty that still remains,’”…

    Evaluation on Anne Frank

    In my research investigation of Anne Frank, the face of the Jews in the Holocaust, I found that she was just a normal Jewish girl going through the hardships of growing up. The fact that she was in hiding from the Nazi soldiers who were ruthless and blamed the Jews for their hardships, as well as the downfall of the First World War, made it extremely difficult for her and it was also what made her and her diary famous. I found that the internet was my main source in gathering information, while the books and film where useful, they were only useful to an extent. The internet provided me with primary and secondary sources of information that were relevant to all four of my questions. Her diary was also very useful giving me both primary and secondary, however I could not use all of her diary, so I picked out the most relevant and put it in my research investigation. The diary was useful in showing Anne’s perspective on the war and how she felt, which is great, however her diary was mostly just on the Annexe and how it was like and how she felt about living there. The film was based on her diary so they were both very similar. I know that the film wasn’t probably the best source because it was made to entertain the audience. However it gave me a perspective in how people from the 1950’s era viewed Anne, as the actors had to capture her emotion and feelings. With the internet source I was able to get an insight on the background of the Holocaust and why it started. My first focusing question, ‘what conditions forced Anne Frank into hiding and how did she find the strength to do it?’ the internet proved useful in gathering the facts and that initially it was only a matter of time before they went into hiding however because of one thing they were forced to go into hiding about a month or two before they had planned. The internet gave me all this information; however I admit that most of it was very similar and it did not give me an insight…
